We looked at homelessness based on the statistics provided by Statistics Canada and some of the PiT assessments that were provided by various providers, so that is the answer on the first part.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6375966\" data-originallang=\"en\">However, recognizing that homelessness exists in other areas of Canada, we established a separate project stream. I may not have been clear about this previously, so my apologies for that, but the second stream of $500 million is based on an application program. Anyone in Canada is invited to apply and we will assess the projects based on need.</p>",

Nous avons examin\u00e9 l'itin\u00e9rance en nous fondant sur les statistiques fournies par Statistique Canada et certains des d\u00e9nombrements ponctuels assur\u00e9s par divers fournisseurs. Voil\u00e0 donc pour la premi\u00e8re partie.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6375966\" data-originallang=\"en\">Toutefois, apr\u00e8s avoir reconnu que l'itin\u00e9rance existe dans d'autres r\u00e9gions du Canada, nous avons \u00e9tabli un volet de projets distinct. Je n'ai peut-\u00eatre pas \u00e9t\u00e9 claire \u00e0 ce sujet auparavant, et je m'en excuse, mais le deuxi\u00e8me volet de 500 millions de dollars est fond\u00e9 sur un programme de demandes. Quiconque au Canada peut pr\u00e9senter une demande et nous \u00e9valuerons les projets en fonction des besoins.</p>"
