We need to build a significant amount more housing. And I've said the private sector needs to build housing, but the public sector also has to build housing. I've said We have to build 200,000 new homes over 10 years. And these have to be truly affordable. And when I talk about affordability, I define it as tied to the median household income in the city. $70,000 for a family of four. (23:03–23:08)
