Today's housing roundtable with Minister Rob Flack and the London St. Thomas Association of REALTORS® was an excellent opportunity to have meaningful discussions on the Ontario Government's recent action towards tackling housing affordability.

We thank all participants for bringing insightful dialogue and engaging conversations to the table as we explored further action the Government can take to build more homes, lower the cost of housing and help more families afford a place to call home.

Kudos to the London and St. Thomas Association of REALTORS® for hosting a fantastic event!
