I want to highlight how this damage impacts the workplan of Local Housing Organizations and Housing NWT.

Mr. Speaker, the only way this government can effectively address the territory’s housing crisis is through true partnership with Indigenous governments. As stated in this government’s mandate, Indigenous governments play an important role in advancing housing initiatives that meet the unique needs of NWT communities, and we must work closely with them to ensure we are implementing housing solutions that have a real, positive impact on residents.

Mr. Speaker, living and travelling throughout the Northwest Territories, I have seen first-hand the many housing challenges faced by residents. All people of the NWT deserve a quality standard of living.
During the 19th Legislative Assembly, Housing NWT consistently advocated to the federal government for funding to address housing needs across the NWT.
