Mr. Speaker, let me begin by offering my congratulations and all the success in your new role. With respect to the hon. member's question, I will not diminish the very serious challenges that families are facing across this country. In order to address Canada's national housing crisis, we are taking a number of different measures. We are investing in affordable housing in a way that no government has over the course of my entire life. In addition, in order to contribute to the ability for builders to build more homes, we are cutting taxes and changing the way that cities build homes through the housing accelerator fund. When I compare our plan to theirs, members can trust that we will get more homes built, and that has been confirmed by finance officials at committee.
