I can’t understand how people look at PP

If you’re the average Canadian and your rent has doubled or tripled, groceries have jumped 50%, and your health care system is collapsing in the last 8 years since Trudeau took power isn’t desperately wanting any alternative an obvious reaction? Many districts are effectively a two party race and if your only goal is to ensure Trudeau isn’t PM, the Cons are your only options.

I’m not saying Pollievre will make any meaningful difference, but at the very least he’s been saying our housing system is broken. Trudeau’s had 8 years and things have only become much worse.

You live in hell?

And after paying all that money you still have to live in London 😔

I have no love for the Liberals but this is indisputably good policy for incentivizing rental supply. Gotta give credit where it's due.

I need you in every housing thread I post here.

The point of this article is we can and should make room in Toronto. There’s plenty of space if we accommodate with a better built form that isn’t sprawling detached homes.

“let’s tear down everything here that all the existing residents chose and replace it with something else that we think is more logical”.

This feels like a dishonest interpretation that misses a lot of the nuance presented in the article.

Subsidizing homeowners with a taxpayer-funded cheque for $500 is regressive policy for a leftist party. Even if we're means-testing it, there's so many better ways that money could be spent.

Once again, as a renter dealing with year over year increases of hundreds of dollars per month, I get nothing.

How much empty housing do you think exists in canada’s largest cities?

"dealing with" is a charitable way to describe "pacing around my apartment desperately trying to avoid thoughts of existential dread"

Fighting this with regulation is a losing battle. The mobility revolution is already here. The long-term solution is to build more mobility lanes to accommodate.

lol a temporary boycott with an explicitly defined timeframe of two days. Yeah that'll show them.
