I believe that this measure of lifting the GST on all rental construction would help all Canadians with housing, including affordable housing. The fact is that we need to add to supply. That is what this measure would do, and this would have a positive impact on everyone who rents, as well as on people looking to buy.</p>",

Je crois que la suppression de la TPS sur la construction de logements locatifs aiderait tous les Canadiens \u00e0 se loger, y compris \u00e0 trouver un logement abordable. Le fait est que nous devons accro\u00eetre l\u2019offre. C\u2019est ce que ferait cette mesure, et elle aurait un impact positif sur tous ceux qui louent un logement, ainsi que sur les gens qui cherchent \u00e0 acheter.</p>"
