Fraser cautioned against blaming the lack of affordable housing on new immigrants.

“Let’s look at what the actual cause of the challenges are that we’re dealing with, and recognize that immigration can actually be used as a tool to bring the workers that we need to build more homes,” he said.

“We have to be really, really careful that we don’t have a conversation that somehow blames newcomers for the housing challenges that have been several decades in the works in Canada.”

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of doing just that during his own media availability in Ottawa on Monday.

“He wants Canadians to forget all that and blame immigrants. He wants to divide people to distract from his failings,” he said.

“He thinks if you’re afraid of your neighbour you might forget that you can’t pay your rent. This is what demagogues do.”
