Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister admitted that he could have and should have done more to build affordable homes in Canada. Now, the reality is that we have a situation where we are losing more affordable homes than we are building as a nation. What does the Prime Minister have to say to a renter who is living in a home he can afford right now but who lives in fear that one day that home will be renovicted or demovicted and he will lose it? What does the Prime Minister have to say to ensure that people will be able to stay in the homes they can afford?

Mr. Speaker, “I should have” is not what people want to hear. People want the job done. Right now, finding affordable housing is impossible because there is none. Affordable rent for someone looking for housing or an apartment is non-existent. What is this Prime Minister going to do to ensure the construction of housing that people can afford?
