      The answer is supply side.

      I still want them to make the CMHC build houses for average families and developers can try to compete.

      Right note there’s not enough competition and developers are building up market instead of for real families.

        I don’t care what side the demand is on. We’ve been talking about fixing the housing crisis since at least 2006. Enough already. Cut immigration, build more housing, and for crying out freaking loud pressure the provinces to implement proper vacancy control.

        No, federal NDP voters, national vacancy control at the federal level is not an option. Not even if Avi says it should be.

        Yeah, essentially subsidized housing both for sale and for rent. Then builders will need to be competitive or justify higher costs by having actual higher quality homes.

        Right now they sell average homes for premium prices.
