  10. But not everyone has the privilege to WFH.

  12.  @john_doe_not_found  <Nothing gets built because wealthy people control supply.> Namely local politicians and ordinary home-owners.

  19. <Western countries really need a right wing dictatorship> Agreed.

  20. State-sponsored theft.

  21. No. Government meddling caused it. Those private investors are the reason any new housing was built at all in the face of bureaucracy.

  22. With feminism and (cultural) Marxism.

  23. They're running out of other people's money to support it.

  28. <Houses are where the people live this is not just about Money and GREED!!!> But thanks to taxes, regulations and bureaucracy, housing is for speculation and investment.
    1
  29. Neither do the limousine liberal or champagne socialist classes.
    1
  30. <There is plenty of capital in Canada to build Canadian houses and rent control is a joke> But bureaucracy made it a costly endeavor. Rent control helped exacerbate the problem.

  31.  @Ynalaw  <Jerry, you are incorrect to smear the average Canadian voter who would never consent to that. > Yet they happily voted for Trudeau Sr. who laid the foundation for what you're seeing now.
    1
  32. <Why recording record profits? > To offset record costs? And since when did profits come before expenses? <Inflation is driven mostly by greed> Namely government greed. <Rich aren't paying workers enough, while jacking up prices.> To cover the costs of government jacking up taxes and restrictions.

    1
  39. Will Jagmeet?

  41. Especially if you're a Boomer or an older Gen Xer.

  42. Liberal as in uber-communist.

  43. <Canadians are uneducated and entitled while working jobs that were designed as student jobs. That’s the problem> In addition to only seeking to buy a house in a major metropolitan area.

  44.  @placefantasy1821  <Our housing “crisis” stems from corporate greed and landlords that buy up multiple properties and then list these properties with 0 maintenance at 3x a mortgage price.> Enabled and facilitated by government meddling.
    1
  45. <Building 50+ story condo towers full of 500 sq foot units where there is no associated infrastructure (roads, schools, healthcare) is idiotic and it is all these developers and builders do in Canada.> Thanks to bureaucracy that made every other kind of housing too cost-prohibitive and all but completely illegal to build.

  46.  @abcdedfg8340  Yet has more per capita homelessness than the US among developed countries.
