$10 million withheld from Toronto's Housing Accelerator Funds. Congratulations to all of the councillors who confidently assured their colleagues that this wouldn't happen when they refused to allow sixplexes in their wards. www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/media-newsro...

"The chair of this committee frequently says that in Ontario, we zone for buildings, not for people. But when we have a report that says adding new buildings will create complete communities and we couldn't possibly do that in Rosedale, I wonder if that's true."

*Sigh* guys, I have been arguing against this perception for years so it would be great if we could not put it on City materials unless there is an actual citation that backs it up.

It's not that boomers are any more nimby than any other generation, it's that they have more time than any other generation to spend on opposing housing.

Just look at the nimbys of a new rental project downtown Toronto, or 5 new single-family homes in Aurora - lots of abundance in grey hairs.

We already have vacant homes taxes in our most chronically unaffordable cities like Toronto and Vancouver, but they've done very little.

Why, because "millions of vacant homes" is a bad misinterpretation of census data akin to a hoax.

The 🍾 socialist left is not serious about housing.
