But she said the agreements are ending for those pre-1994 residences across Canada, \u201cbe they cooperatives, non-profit or low-cost housing,\u201d and some C\u00f4te St. Luc residences are impacted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s 585,000 units across Canada,\u201d she added. \u201cTwo of the Caldwell residences \u2014 one of which is in C\u00f4te St. Luc \u2014 lost their subsidies in 2014. And the other two buildings will lose their subsidies in 2023. Already, new tenants at Caldwell have to pay full market rent. Right now, in C\u00f4te St. Luc, two houses out of five pay more than the standard 30 percent of their income towards housing, and tenants wait years before they can have access to social housing. The potential loss of existing social housing projects only worsens the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Anthony Housefather said he would personally support such a resolution, but that it has to be discussed with council first.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a very serious issue,\u201d he said. \u201cThe council is now looking at other options to enhance the amount of housing in C\u00f4te St. Luc, in different ways with different groups. I\u2019m hoping, in the next few years, there will be more options in C\u00f4te St. Luc and allow for a lesser waiting list and a more modern facilities. But I\u2019ll leave it to those groups to eventually announce where they\u2019re going to locate and when, and if the rezonings go through. For sure, I will bring your proposed resolution to an in-committee [council] discussion, and if we have a consensus, we\u2019ll bring it back and let you know.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut you have my personal support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Joel Goldenberg<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Suburban - CSL asked to urge renewal of federal housing subsidies\" href=\"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2015-0422-Suburban-CSL-Asked-To-Urge-Renewal.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PDF<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Suburban &#8211; April 22, 2015<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":6733,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[281],"tags":[161,189,246],"class_list":["post-10005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dans-les-medias","tag-droit-au-logement","tag-logement-social","tag-subventions-au-logement-social"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-07-14 17:42:19","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10005"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10005\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16883,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10005\/revisions\/16883"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6733"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
