I want to thank the member from “build nothing” riding, because that’s what he believes in: building absolutely nothing. It’s unheard of that the University of Guelph, on their property, tried to get housing and guess what? He didn’t support it. He didn’t support housing at the University of Guelph. He doesn’t believe in building housing in Guelph. They have the lowest per capita housing starts in the entire province.

I find it ironic that he’s coming up and trying to tell us how to build housing. Let me tell you, Mr. Speaker, we have 445,000 people who arrived in Ontario last year and they need homes. We’re going to make sure that we hit our target of 1.5 million homes, and I just wish the MPP from Guelph would get on board and support our housing plan, because the people in his community are going to need homes.
