"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7928380\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I want to focus on the housing part of this and the proposal in the bill to take the GST off purpose-built rental housing, which is something we support. I want to ask the hon. member about the importance of non-market housing in providing security of housing for many people who are shut out of the market by their income. In my riding, there are 15 co-operatives that provide housing for more than 400 families and have done so for the last 20 years. With just a quick look, I found more than 10 co-op housing projects in Simcoe County providing housing for about 300 people.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7928381\" data-originallang=\"en\">Does the member support our proposal that the federal government get back into the building of co-operative housing?</p>",

Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 pourrait-il nous parler de l'importance des logements sociaux, qui offrent la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 de logement \u00e0 de nombreuses personnes n'ayant pas un revenu suffisant pour se loger aux conditions du march\u00e9? Dans ma circonscription, il y a 15 coop\u00e9ratives qui logent plus de 400 familles, et ce, depuis 20 ans. En faisant une petite recherche, j'ai trouv\u00e9, dans la r\u00e9gion du comt\u00e9 de Simcoe, plus de 10 coop\u00e9ratives d'habitation qui logent environ 300 personnes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7928381\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 appuie-t-il notre proposition voulant que le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral recommence \u00e0 financer la construction de coop\u00e9ratives d'habitation?</p>"
