Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague so very much for his tireless advocacy for eastern Ontario as part of our caucus. Through the build communities strong fund, our government is investing billions of dollars from coast to coast to coast to improve the lives of Canadians. Our announcement of more than $66 million to extend the water main in Tyendinaga means water security, support for housing [more]

Madam Speaker, our government cares deeply about affordability, whether it be prices at the grocery store or rent. Indeed, we have seen across Canada, 24 months in a row, that rents have been coming down. We are also making historic investments in housing, including in Oshawa, in the member's riding, where, with the help of the ACLP, we have invested $188 million to build 502 homes on the former [more]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to say that I very much enjoyed announcing a project in that member's riding in the spring. I am so excited that we are bringing affordable housing to Richmond Hill. I would also like to point out that we are not stopping there. We are making investments in housing-enabling infrastructure across the province, with big announcements happening all around the province, [more]

Mr. Speaker, I would also like to point out that Habitat for Humanity is building in my neighbouring riding of Whitby. We are so happy it is building housing for young Canadians from coast to coast to coast. In addition, I would like to point out that we are making record investments in infrastructure across the country. What that is doing is creating jobs for youth, high-paying careers, and [more]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to start by thanking Habitat for Humanity for the work it does. I am very excited that this summer in Ajax, with the help of the housing accelerator fund, we found land for Habitat for Humanity to build upon. That is just part of our plan for young Canadians across the country from coast to coast to coast. We have introduced the GST rebate for new homebuyers, which is [more]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to point out that major players like RBC are observing improving housing affordability, brightening job prospects and stabilizing prices. Indeed, throughout the summer in Ontario, we saw that housing sales for new homes were up 130%. We have now seen across the country for 24 consecutive months that rents are coming down. Our plan is working. We are investing in Build [more]

Mr. Speaker, it is stories like Steve's that have compelled us to act on housing affordability in this country. That is why we have launched Build Canada Homes to build affordable housing at scale across the country. That is why we have increased our rebate for the GST, working in provinces like Ontario and others to bring those costs down. That is why we are investing in infrastructure, [more]

Okay. That's my question.

Yes, I mean the summary of evidence. What is your timeline for the summary of evidence?

I would say a week after we receive the summary of evidence.

I'm worried about receiving the summary of evidence.

Yes, thank you. I have other questions. What role did the three granting agencies play in your study? Have they responded to your recommendations?

Just to clarify, it will summarize both the oral and the written submissions. There were quite a few written submissions.

No. I think that's okay. I just want to make sure the themes you're going to send back will include the input from the written submissions. You've evaluated that as well.

Thank you. I have one last question. Are there differences between sociological, scientific and medical studies? Do you have different recommendations for the various disciplines?

Madam Chair, have we received the summary of research?
