Minister of Families, Children and Social Development Jean-Yves Duclos rises during Question Period in the House of Commons on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Oct. 26, 2018.The federal Liberals are using their omnibus budget bill to legislate a “right to housing” and the requirements on future government to not drop the concept.
A national housing council is to advise the government on the effects of the strategy and a new housing advocate is to report annually on systemic issues preventing Canadians from finding affordable and safe places to live.Reports would also be required every three years on how well the strategy is meeting national goals and furthering “the progressive realization of the right to adequate housing.
“The federal government has admitted to having an obligation when it comes to protecting the most vulnerable of Canadians,” Duclos said in an interview Wednesday. “There will always need to be a continuing conversation that’s exactly what the bill says – the national housing strategy will need to evolve, but I think we’ve made major steps in very little time.”
So once again by Liberals you mean the UN and the right to housing is 55 billion for special interest lobby parasites. Another disaster brought to us by globalists.
'to anyone wrongfully denied a home for reasons such as ethnicity, religion, or gender identity' - How about the perceived ability to pay rent? That goes a long way, further than any of the afore mentioned
A right to housing because we don’t already have laws against discrimination. This government is one of the most duplicitous. I’m glad they’re on their last legs and stumbling to the door. cdnpoli
Can't say i am surprised the manipulative POS are attempting to push something else through.
