“Mr. Speaker, I do not appreciate the narrative that we are denying Canadians a solution. The Liberal government, for 11 years now, has made several attempts to resolve this issue by addressing the problem that they see with homelessness and with housing in Canada, and they have only made matters worse over the last 11 years. The Liberals have to accept failure at some point in time and realize that the best thing to do is probably to get rid of the infrastructure we have for housing here in Ottawa and transfer the funds to the province, which would be more adept at solving the problem than the government has proven to be.”

Mr. Speaker, The question · 13 wordsI would like to ask my colleague a question in the same vein.Claims · 94 wordsEarlier in my speech, I said that the government was adding a layer of bureaucracy.In the past, there used to be programs managed by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, or CMHC.In my riding, I see a lot of social housing development projects that are unfortunately not being funded.They have funding from Quebec through the Société d’habitation du Québec, or SHQ, but they have not received federal funding for several months because they have been asked to wait for Build Canada Homes.1Hidden agencyCMHC used to be able to provide funding, however.The question · 43 wordsDoes my colleague agree that there is an added layer of complexity here?Perhaps he is seeing the same type of problem in his own riding, where projects are ready to move forward but are being held up by the slow federal government.
