I’m not convinced this issue has an easy solution. Most people who voice their opinions here always seem to have a silver bullet to the housing problem yet in most cases I can’t find any evidence supporting what they are proposing will work. People seem to just be guessing what the problem is based on anecdotal evidence. The only thing I can find evidence for is there is not enough housing being built in Canada but this seems like a tough problem to solve.
I’m also not even convinced this is a purely national problem. It seems like a lot of countries are dealing with the same problem right now. This isn’t to say there is no answer but it seems to suggest this is a tough problem and no one has a great solution to it.
The difference is other countries are at least trying things. The federal Liberals have only done things that actively make things worse (boosting demand via savings plans or RRSP withdrawals).They are all in on subsiding the landowners via the youth. It’s disgusting and I’m sick of it. It has destroyed the economic outlook of this country for decades IMO.
Trudeau has struggled to make housing a serious issue so Pierre is doing a lot better.
