Madam Speaker, the member made reference to more of a holistic approach in dealing with the issue of housing, and I will use that as an example. I have said in the past that no government in the history of Canada, at least not in the last 50 to 60 years, has actually invested more in housing than the current government has. We can talk about the national housing strategy of billions of dollars, as well as a litany of different types of programs to encourage the development of housing and working with provinces. We can go to the fall economic statement, where we are seeing an expansion being proposed under the housing co-ops for alternative forms of housing. Would the member not recognize that this legislation is just one aspect of that? Does he not support the holistic approach that the government is actually proposing?
