Replying to Kevin Lamoureux (Liberal)
“Madam Speaker, I am sure the minister would agree that it is critically important that we work collaboratively with other jurisdictions, whether it is provinces, indigenous people or other stakeholders. It is very clear that the Conservatives made the decision long ago that they do not support Bill C‑20. If it was up to the Conservative Party, Bill C‑20 would never, ever pass. That is why I appreciate what the Minister of Housing is doing today. Given the importance of collaboration, I wonder if he can expand upon that point. He made reference to the province of Quebec and the benefits of collaboration. Could the minister just expand on that and provide some comments on accountability within the legislation also?”

Madam Speaker, Procedure · 14 wordsto the point of collaboration, we have seen fantastic uptake from provinces and territories.Procedure Claims · 96 wordsI mentioned Quebec moments ago and Nunavut. We have a partnership with B.C. to build 1,100 new affordable homes and 700 of those are supportive and transitional homes for those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.1 Both Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are in partnership with Build Canada Homes for more than 1,000 homes.2 Right out of the gate, we have agreements with provinces and territories; 3Yukon and Nunavut are examples, 4as are Ontario and Quebec.5 We have opportunities to build in every province and territory right now, and existing agreements are in place. Reasoning · 35 wordsThat speaks to that collaboration. I think we are seeing the interest and the uptake. It is not only from different levels of government, like the City of Ottawa, 6but also from the private sector.
