  1. Since government wants to be so very involved in housing, I am sure they can and will FUBAR the entire housing industry. They will completely ignore markets and price signals, and build “housing” of the wrong type and where it is not needed, while exacerbating housing shortages where it is needed.

  2. Just keep raising mortgage rates … that’ll solve the housing crisis. Fewer and fewer will be able to afford homes … so they’ll all just go into government shelters … where they will be fed bugs.

    1. “Just keep raising mortgage rates….”

      Lending rates have been too low for too long and created this crisis. On the flip side low rates have pushed retires into unstable risky markets to make any hay of their retirement savings.

      Reasonable rates allow/ encourage people to save, retiree’s to safely retire, and spenders to buy within their means. I don’t know where the balance should be but would guess somewhere in the 6% – 8% range.

    1. Pretty hard to get them to the tops of all the 3 floor, low income, high density housing structures, fast enough, to satisfy the need..

      Also, statistical error?? It’s simple math..
      You mean you’re NOT counting them, as they come in? Even a bouncer can count number in vs. number out..
      what a sad joke this country has become!

  7. Statistical Errors everywhere. (link to CBC posting)

    Feds handed out 4.3 million hours over Phoenix pay system woes

    The government department in charge of managing labour relations with federal public servants distributed nearly 4.3 million compensation hours to workers affected by the problematic Phoenix pay system, according to data obtained by CBC news.

    Stemming from a 2019 joint agreement between the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) and various public service unions, current workers were granted up to five days of leave. If the employee no longer worked for the government, they were paid the cash equivalent.

    The compensation hours amount to more than 179,000 days of leave.

    Employees were eligible for two days of leave for the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years, and one day of leave between 2017 and 2020.

    Can’t keep track of who got paid and who didn’t, so give everyone “compensation”.

  8. Error, yeah. I million imported Liberal voters, more like. Consequences to the country? DK,DC. What boggles my mind is how ordinary i,e. have been resident for years Canadians vote for this BS.

  10. All week i have been sitting up at night with my cousin in the hospital. Each night I enter through the ER dept. Usually every chair is full and folks sitting on the window sill. Last night several were sleeping away waiting to see someone
