Mr. Speaker, we are in the midst of a housing crisis. It is virtually impossible for people in Quebec to find affordable housing. Three weeks ago, the National Housing Council stated that, although the federal government has built 115,000 units, Canada has lost a jaw-dropping 550,000 affordable housing units over the past 10 years. We are moving backward, not forward. For every new affordable housing unit, we lose five. Before any talk about tripling the population, is there a single MP on the government side who has thought about where all those people are going to live?
