Mr. Speaker, last week's announcement on home heating only benefits Canadians who live where Liberals need to save their seats. All Canadians need some relief when it comes to the cost of home heating. That is why New Democrats proposed taking the GST off all home heating. It would help all Canadians. It is a measure that Liberals and Conservatives have both opposed. When will the Liberals stop playing games and bring in relief for all Canadians this cold winter?

Mr. Speaker, Doug Ford and the Greenbelt are the perfect example of the Conservatives' housing strategy: sell public land to their rich developer friends. The Liberals' record after eight years is no better, with record-high rents, renovictions and the worst housing market in the G7. These two parties are looking out for the people profiting from the housing crisis, not the people suffering from it. When will the government announce measures for building not-for-profit housing?
