“We are working hard to make housing more affordable. In British Columbia, we are helping build thousands of homes and spending over $5 billion on things that support new housing. We care about making life cheaper for people.”
“Mr. Speaker, we have been working hard on housing affordability to bring down rents and the cost to buy a home. I would like to point out that in British Columbia, we have made meaningful progress. We have committed 1,100 homes in B.C. through Build Canada Homes. We are investing more than $5 billion in housing-enabling infrastructure. We are working with the province to bring down development charges. In addition, I would like to point out that we have 116 purpose-built rental homes under way in Burnaby, 349 at UBC and the Burke Mountain Community Centre in Coquitlam is under construction. There is lots under way. We care about affordability.”
