Caroline Desrochers Liberal
“Conservatives have no plan to make life more affordable. They voted against our help all year and say we should not build affordable housing. Our programs are working. Rents have dropped over the last two years, and tens of thousands of homes are being built. Conservatives need to get to work.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am confused about what my colleague is saying because, quite simply, the Conservatives have no plan to make life more affordable for families. On the contrary, they have consistently voted against everything we have done since the beginning of the year. From the very start, they have been telling us that the government has no business getting involved in building affordable housing. We are there. We are already hard at work. Rents have gone down over the past 24 months. Tens of thousands of housing starts are under way thanks to the programs that we put in place. Let us be serious. The Conservatives need to get to work.”
