Jeff Kibble Conservative
“I want to vote against this housing bill. It wastes money and does not build enough homes. The government spent $13 billion to build only 11,000 houses.”
“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his great question. I appreciate my colleague’s kind words and the opportunity to speak a little, very briefly in the time I am allowed, about some of the improvements. I laid it out fairly clearly in my speech, but it is about accountability. Look, we love when money is spent to help housing in Canada. We are always accused that we are voting against that and voting against Canadians. No, we are voting against lousy bills that are wasting money and are not building houses, and we have seen that with $13 billion for 11,000 houses. That is what we are voting against. We are voting for Canadians. I encourage my colleague to review my notes and go over the four points for bringing accountability.”
