Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question, but also for her advocacy on these issues. Making our communities more sustainable and more resilient when it comes to climate change is a priority to our government to help plan the cities and communities of the future. That is why, this morning, together with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, we announced a $530‑million fund, the first fund in the history of Canada devoted to climate change adaptation and resilience. This fund will help serve 1,400 communities across the country to better prepare us and better prepare our communities for the impacts of climate change.
