A: We’re doing a lot on affordable housing. So last term of council, they invested $45 million in affordable housing. This term, the investment is going to be $105 million, so that’s a 133 per cent increase. We’re also attracting investment from the other levels of government into affordable housing, like the deal we struck with the prime minister just last week … We introduced a new incentive program for people to build affordable housing that several developers have taken advantage of, and we’re working with our partners at Ottawa Community Housing. We’re making progress and there are more units being built. It feels like it’s never enough, but we’re doing everything we can.
