Hon. Marc Gold (Government Representative in the Senate): Thank you for the question and the opportunity to improve upon my answer. I fear, as seems to be the case, I may disappoint you. I don’t have a date. I could stop there, and I won’t go on much longer. I’ll make inquiries and certainly report back.

It is important for Canadians to understand the measures the government has taken to deal with the complex question of housing affordability, a large part of which is a question of supply. In that regard I will stop here, but I will be happy to answer further questions on the measures that are being taken by the government to work with industry and other levels of government to address what is a real problem for which solutions are rather challenging.
