“The Prime Minister said a lot of words about housing, but Canadians still can't afford homes. Prices are rising, the government spent $13 billion to build almost no homes, and Canada is the worst in the G7. I want the Prime Minister to stand up and defend his record of broken promises.”

Housing

The Liberals claimed it will bring down housing costs and rents are falling, while the Conservatives argued the agency will only build about 5,000 homes despite billions in funding, mocking the government's claims it will double the pace of construction.
“The Prime Minister promised housing results but gave Canadians higher costs, higher debt, and fewer homes. His housing project news conferences will not fool Canadians much longer. I want results and this government has none.”
