I want to make a comment and ask a question—but I want to congratulate the question that was asked by my colleague from Renfrew–Nipissing–Pembroke.

The times find us, and that means that the times, the economy of the day, dictate what’s happening in our province.

We have hundreds of thousands of people coming to our province each year. They need to have a place to live. If we plant the seeds today, if we work hard today, then we will have the ability to have places for people to live.

You have to remember something—and I’m sure the member will agree: Not everybody who is a small home builder is a large corporation. They’re trying to build a house. That one house can be sold or rented to somebody else.

Would the member agree that we need to plant the seeds now to accommodate these hundreds of thousands of people coming in each year?
