I have heard lots of interesting arguments against building housing but this one takes the cake….😳 We will not address the housing crisis without increasing supply and direct investments into affordable housing from governments. theglobeandmail.com/politics/opini…
@KahlonRav Rubbish. We can perfectly well address housing by setting levels of immigration (of all kinds) according to the amount of housing available.
@KahlonRav Based on the last six years of your government your opinion on anything means nothing to taxpayers. NDP are making B.C. unaffordable. It’s time for this circus to leave town!
@KahlonRav And I thought this one was bad - ‘I’m all for housing but it shouldn’t be in any existing neighborhood!So where then? Well not here!’
@KahlonRav You are harming communities with your plans and lack of engagement. When engagement does not occur, and there is not support, plans fail.
@KahlonRav There needs to be a remedy to land prices. If $1M only gets you the dirt to build on, there's no path from there to affordability, esp. if developers are in the pipeline to gouge and markup on the end product.
@KahlonRav @vb_jens observes that in Vancouver, it's exactly the other way around. Land is expensive, so families with children live in neighbourhoods with more multifamily housing. Elsewhere, the number of children is shrinking. @JohnIbbitson doodles.mountainmath.ca/posts/2022-05-…
@KahlonRav Freeze Immigration we don't want more people here, we have a housing crisis
@KahlonRav Surely you know the conventional wisdom: If you don’t have a lawn, You don’t get to spawn.
@KahlonRav Slow immigration down until we have new schools, housing and hospitals to support the population.
