Mr. Speaker, the hon. member knows that independent Crown corporations are responsible for the compensation of their staff. When it comes to the housing supply, we are supporting Canadians struggling with the cost of housing and protecting the dream of home ownership by including things such as a $4-billion housing accelerator fund to speed up the construction of new housing, a federal top-up to the Canada housing benefit to help millions of Canadians, our $40,000 first-time homebuyer tax-free savings account and new guidelines to protect Canadians who already have mortgages. All of these measures are helping Canadians, and what did the Conservatives do? They voted against each one of them.
