Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Liberals are blocking home construction. Under this Prime Minister, homebuilding has dropped, spending on government workers has gone up, and Canada now has the most expensive homes in the G7. I want the Prime Minister to stop getting in the way of home builders and take responsibility for these failures.”
“Mr. Speaker, at least the Liberals listened for once. I explained to them that houses are built by plumbers, electricians and carpenters, and the members stood up and said that the building trades build homes. We know who builds homes, but do we know who blocks homes? The Liberals block homes. They have been blocking homes so badly for so long that now we have the most expensive real estate in the G7, and under the Prime Minister, homebuilding has actually dropped while he has increased the spending on bureaucracy. Will the Prime Minister get out of the way of home builders, stand in the House and take accountability for his homebuilding failures?”
