"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5674147\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I have heard repeatedly from the party opposite that they have some belief, that I cannot find in fact, that the housing money that this government has invested has not hit the ground and is not building real housing for real people and providing real subsidies right now.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674148\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Victoria is getting to functional zero within two years on homelessness precisely because of the federal housing investments made in our first budget, our second budget, our third budget, and now for the next 10 years following that.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674149\" data-originallang=\"en\">Additionally, we have modular housing being opened in Vancouver. There have been four projects in Vancouver, all with federal dollars, opened in the last six months. Even in the riding that the member comes from, Nanaimo, I was there personally to open 26 units of really innovative passive housing put forth by the friendship centre in her riding.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674150\" data-originallang=\"en\">The dollars are real. The dollars were tripled to the provinces in the first budget. The homelessness dollars doubled in our first budget and are now locked in for the next 10 years. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674151\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The party opposite promised to only increase homelessness spending by $10 million. If we take a look at its platform for the last three years of its housing budget on rental housing, it promised zero, zero and zero, and only zero if it got to a balanced budget. Could the party opposite explain how spending zero dollars on housing was going to solve the housing crisis that the member speaks of so eloquently?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5674147\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, d'apr\u00e8s ce qu'il nous a dit \u00e0 maintes reprises, le parti d'en face semble penser, pour une raison que j'ignore, que les fonds investis dans le logement par le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral n'ont pas men\u00e9 \u00e0 des mesures concr\u00e8tes, \u00e0 la construction de v\u00e9ritables logements pour de vraies personnes ni au versement de subventions r\u00e9elles.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674148\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Victoria devrait pour ainsi dire r\u00e9gler ses probl\u00e8mes d'itin\u00e9rance en deux ans justement gr\u00e2ce aux investissements dans le logement que nous avons annonc\u00e9s dans nos premier, deuxi\u00e8me et troisi\u00e8me budgets, et que nous avons pr\u00e9vus pour les 10 prochaines ann\u00e9es.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674149\" data-originallang=\"en\">De plus, on ouvre des logements modulaires \u00e0 Vancouver. Quatre projets y ont \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9alis\u00e9s au cours des six derniers mois, tous gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 des fonds provenant du gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral. M\u00eame dans la circonscription de la d\u00e9put\u00e9e, Nanaimo, j'ai assist\u00e9 personnellement \u00e0 l'ouverture de 26 unit\u00e9s d'habitation passives offertes par le centre d'amiti\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674150\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les fonds sont r\u00e9els. Les montants accord\u00e9s aux provinces ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tripl\u00e9s dans le premier budget. Les investissements dans la lutte contre l'itin\u00e9rance ont doubl\u00e9 dans notre premier budget et sont maintenant pr\u00e9vus pour les 10 prochaines ann\u00e9es. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5674151\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le parti d'en face a promis de seulement augmenter les d\u00e9penses li\u00e9es \u00e0 l'itin\u00e9rance de 10 millions de dollars. Si nous examinons sa plateforme des trois derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, nous constatons qu'il n'avait promis absolument aucun financement pour les logements locatifs s'il r\u00e9ussissait \u00e0 \u00e9quilibrer le budget. Le parti d'en face peut-il expliquer comment le fait de ne pr\u00e9voir aucun argent pour le logement allait r\u00e9gler la crise du logement dont la d\u00e9put\u00e9e a parl\u00e9 avec tant d'\u00e9loquence?</p>"
