WE RESOLVE:

1. THAT we call on all political parties running in the coming 2015 federal election to commit to:
   • assisting provincial and territorial governments, on a cost-sharing basis, to deliver rent supplement programs for low-income households living in federal housing co-ops as their CMHC funding agreements expire;
   • increasing federal funding to the provinces and territories for housing as needed to provide this cost-shared support;
2. AND THAT we call on the parties to include these commitments in their written campaign platforms.

AGM ACTION:
Adopted as presented
