I appreciated listening to the comments from the member from Niagara Centre, but I’m a little bit confused—because we know that we have seen more housing starts in the last year than in 35 years in the province of Ontario. The Associate Minister of Housing could correct me if I’m wrong, but we’ve actually seen more rental housing starts in the last year than we have seen in decades and decades. So I’m left confused, because the evidence is clear: If you want to stop rental housing construction starts, put in rent control. But it seems to me that the only idea that we’ve had from the member from Niagara Centre is rent control, which is demonstrably an absolute failure.

I was wondering if he could explain to the House why we’ve seen more housing starts and more rental starts in the last year than in decades, if our plan hasn’t worked, if our policies don’t work.

I appreciate the opportunity to ask the question one more time briefly, because I’m still confused. We’ve seen more housing starts, more rental starts than in decades in the province of Ontario. If it’s not the More Homes, More Choice Act, if it’s not the More Homes for Everyone Act, I would ask the member to briefly explain what he thinks those new housing starts must be due to, if not from the policies of our government?
