Government rebates are too small to help. I want the Prime Minister to stop making promises and make housing affordable.”
“Mr. Speaker, he is out of touch and people are out of money. Giving back a tiny fraction of what the government takes away will not cover even one mortgage payment, and that is if people can afford a home. Today, we have a report from Habitat for Humanity, which did a survey of 22 nations and found that Canadians were the most likely to have given up on the dream of home ownership.
