During Question Period Wednesday Ashton told Prime Minister Justin Trudeau 85 percent of First Nations in Manitoba have mould in their overcrowded homes.  She said in community after community people are saying that things are not getting better, things are getting worse so her question to the Prime Minister is does he not know that the housing crisis is literally making people sick and when will his Liberal government move from talking and move to action to address this housing crisis on First Nations now.

Trudeau replied since being elected they have lifted 78 long term boil water advisories in Indigenous communities, opened hundreds of new schools, invested in new health centers and invested in hundreds of new housing units across the country.
