Montreal’s mayor and a provincial opposition party leader are warning that the city’s affordable housing shortage is going to get worse if more money isn’t made available.
Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante and Québec solidaire spokesperson Manon Massé made their pleas during separate news conferences Monday ahead of July 1, Quebec’s traditional moving day. Plante says Montreal has been waiting for the past four years for millions of dollars promised by the federal government to build 1,200 affordable housing units and renovate an additional 4,700 units.
Massé says low-income families in Montreal and in the rest of the province are spending up to 85 per cent of their monthly incomes on housing.
And Wuebec will certainly get it while other provinces hold out their tin cups to Ottawa!
