The Goderich Signal-Star, 1974-11-21, Page 22PAGE 6A–.GOl 1 RICI-I SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY. NOV,'EMBER 21, 1974 Federal minister Housing is everyone's concern here in 'Goderich qs well as any other place. In. truth, Government Housing is 'not new to.Goderich. • 'The following remprks by Hon. Barne,y4Danson, Minister of State for Ur- bl `t Affairs, will be of in- terest, Mr. Danson said "As an elected representative from a major urban area, I am cohstantly ° aware of the problems of urban living in Canada and :now as the Minister responsible for the Ministry of Urban Affairs and - the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation welcome the opportunity to ex- press this concern in,.a tangible way. "I do- not tape this respon- sibility lightly. It is not an easy feat to ensure that all Canadians in all parts of ,the country ar1,4 ''at every income level are provided with access to decent accommodation.' "We're in this with our eyes open and alt of us are°aware of the mane problems and barriers that confront us in achieving oiir, objective — the' high price of a- home, high in- terest rates and the shortage of serviced land are but a tfew. "It is fair to. say, I believe, that by and. large Canadians are among the best -housed people both qualitively and luant.itively in the world:• ``Canada has an excep 'pally good record' in dealing th housing problems and this ,vernmen't has no intetrti(in of .bandoning its commitment to he provision of good housing (or, all Canadians in a stable., liousing market. "Let's just examine that record for a moment. A few years ago the Economic Coun- cil of Canada told us that in or- der to meet the needs ,of - Canadians we would have to, build a 'million homes in the five• year period between 1969 and .1973. "Through' CMHC and in co- operation with the provinces, municipalities' and the .private building industry, the govern- ment has responded aggressively and that target.,, was exceeded by a substantial --margin, surpassing 200,000 units every year. "In the last six years 1,350,000 new homes were,built ° in Canada, while in • the same period 700,000 new families were formed. We haven't just kept up with the needs of new families " for homes, our building rate' has been `almost double, that , of `.family for- mations. human terms this represents . not just 1,350,000 housing units buthomes for almost five and a half -million Coen, women and children. We in Canada have more than kept pace with this phenomenal growth rate. We have in fact improved the .housing market from its state six years ago. This- is a record of which we can all be proud not com- placent — but proud. It is true however that there are many individuals and groups within, our o'vn society, too many in -my view, who are still on the outside looking in. "This cOntinuestl tp• disturb me,'particularly ir►' a society as ?affluent as ours. ° "I'm not' comforted by the 'fact that low-income, fixed in- come or otherwise disadvan- taged Canadian;- are in danger of being. hurt the most in an in- flationary marketplace: r' ;'These people are the gover- nment's first concern — they're your first concern and .they're certainty my first concern. "Clearly, 'the •number of housing starts, record levels in the last four %ears, is ,extremely important. What pis even more impnrta'nt is the distribution of housing starts among .all levels' of society.. Unless'we build the kind of housing that people need : and can afford we will have failed. "But I Wouldn't be satisfied if our' only goal was to build enough housing units in which to contain people. "People ,must live in com- niunities not simply protective enclosures called houses and it is the quality cif those com- munities socially, culturally, recreationally and:,. economically which is so fun- damental to a healthy society. `During .the . last election when 1 was knocking on' dorirs in my ' riding, which is a reasonably affluent suburban Constituency for the most part, I, came across a development of what would be called stacked town louses — quite pleasant r�es111. It Was an OHC project, the kind. that- used to be con- sidered not 'nuclei more than a better place to • house low- income people and of course it would always be found in the core area of the city, filled with .families who "have been hopelessly enmeshed in the welfare -cycle for generations. 1 noticed there were kids of all colors playing in the yard of the, complex and having a whale of a time and it really had an ,impact on me. Imagine, p a whole new world was opened up for these children, out of the sjladows of the skyscrapers — the potentially explosive at- mosphere of cramped living,' dirty gutters, winos and-.,_ prostitutes. nts "One of illy cohstitUenti , a long-t'lme resident of the area, at first expressed some skep- ticism about "these people" moving inti) tiffs neighbourhood. But .after being himself expciseij and having his family exposed • to to people from the project he admitted to me that his at- titude had changed completely and' his previously held prejudices were more artificial than real. "Here's a chance to break the plan poverty and welfare cycle which, in my view, is as much social ,or attitudinal as it is .economic•. Here is a chance. to make • communities real com- rnu.nities and not simply packages of poverty and parcels of wealth, each one separated from the other by outmoded at- ti•tudes, and artificial animosities. "Really what I have learned • from such an experience is that (continued on page 7A) A&P Brands are Equal to ' the Best, yet sell for less!
