Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. He addressed the issue of social housing and focused on homelessness in particular. Last week, during our constituency week, I had the chance to attend the unveiling of the City of Granby's action plan for fighting homelessness. The city's request for the federal government is clear: The federal program that can help deal with homelessness is Reaching Home. Granby is still considered a rural community, yet homelessness is on the rise throughout the entire region. Is the government willing to review this program so that more communities like Granby can be deemed “designated communities“ in order to address the needs of the homeless?
