Exactly. But land prices and zoning restrictions make it unviable to build that kind of housing, so developers must build McMansions or like six plexes units, but they can’t do six plexes so we get all these McMansions.

Can confirm. Maybe 11 more years will change that though.

Hi Steve. Big fan and enjoyed the episode, my one bit of feedback was that frustrated young folks weren't really discussed — the causes and the fixes. Very notable that those under 30 in Canada are now ranked 58th happiest while those over 60 are 8th happiest.

demonstrate to the minister than the budget isn’t enough to provide adequate and effective policing. So it in effect reverses the onus onto police and the board to show that the budget isn’t enough, whereas in BC, it’s always open to the board to appeal to the director.

No other province deals with police budget disputes like BC. Ours is the most lopsided framework. A don’t even allow the board to reject the cities budget, the board has to make do with what the local gov approve. In Manitoba, the only way to ‘appeal’ it is if the board or police service

Have you read @adambecker.bsky.social book AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley's Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity? Great intellectual history of what led many to think these two obviously wrong conclusions are possible.

Not only that but I’d be very curious to hear how much voters even care about these cuts or are aware of them. Small savings and when Trudeau announced the grocery rebate last budget of like $240 that hardly registered. Wasted money to my eyes, better to boost GIS, EI, maybe child benefit.
