As an old home owner or what?

Food bank usage is way up, housing is crisis levels, youth unemployment is nearing 20%. At least the last time the youth had it this bad housing was still affordable.

Its called capital shallowing. We need growth that can be absorbed organically, like what existed prior to the Liberals, but its being done desperately to hide falling GDP.

Tying immigration to housing completions was his plan. Removing gst on housing was originally his idea. There was rezoning for density around transit and withholding federal funds from areas that don't build fast enough to encourage rezoning and reducing development taxes. Then there was selling off federal buildings and land to build housing. He also criticized the BoC for ignoring inflation and doing QE, because it rewarded asset holders, and he even said he would fire Tiff Macklem for ignoring his inflation mandate.

Now we have a housing minister who says housing is an investment, and Carney himself essentially repeated that in a round about way. Elbows up for homelessness.

Canada has a bad record themselves, I'd hate to set a precedent that countries should care.

Do all the highest cost businesses not all have the largest government regulation?

Telecoms, housing, dairy and cheese, alcohol; even maple syrup is a cartel in Canada, its not normal that a tiny glass bottle should be so expensive.
