We are doing something about it. We have a homelessness crisis and it is getting worse all the time. People are struggling with rising rents—they are struggling to even find a rental—and struggling with rising interest rates. Young people are struggling to buy their first home, and so many are struggling with homelessness. I see that struggle every day, particularly frontline workers telling me they cannot access housing.
