Replying to Sherry Romanado (Liberal)
“Mr. Speaker, I know we are talking about Building Canada Homes and creating this stand-alone agency, and the previous speaker mentioned that no homes have actually been built. I was at the inauguration of a building in my riding in March with 30 units for transitional housing, so I have seen in my own riding that we are building. We are building to make sure that we provide the supply to allow more Canadians to find a place to live and to buy their first home. As such, I am not quite sure why the members opposite are saying no homes are being built, when I know for a fact that in my riding there have been. In fact, Longueuil was actually identified as one of the six projects initially announced.”

Claims · 30 wordsUnder its own definition of housing units, the government refuses to be transparent with the kinds of housing it is building and whether it will meet the needs of families. Reasoning · 26 wordsI would remind the member that she needs to also take a look at what others are saying about this crisis and how they are doing.Partly on point
