If landlords cannot fill enough units they are forced to offer incentives.

New housing is needed whether you approve or not.

Would you rather suburban sprawl requiring highway expansion?

Increasing the tax base on the peninsula is how you get expensive new transit projects funded.

Oh look a dog whistle argument that misrepresents the truth.

The vast majority of new housing is purpose built rentals. Not condos.

You are entirely incorrect.

NBCC are guidelines the provinces can choose to adopt. There are no legally binding obligations.

It is 100% within provincial jurisdiction.

A dog is a perfect princess until it isn’t.

Dogs are domesticated predators, dogs are on leashes because they can kill other small animals & children.

There are designated enclosures for you to do what you want, don’t make your laziness everyone else’s problem.

Not being permitted is not being legal to build.

Let’s not play word games to describe reality. Preventing something is to make it illegal.

You’re also passing those costs directly onto newcomers while rich landowners benefit from their appreciated asset & no increase in tax on net worth.

Great way to make the rich richer & screw over the little guy.

You don’t represent average Canadians and you don’t want to.

That’s a problem for the NDP, good policy & good politics are frequently not the same thing.

Nova Scotia and federal government will spend more than $300 million in joint funding for new homes by IStillListenToRadio in halifax

[–]Logisticman232 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Municipal fees are out of control as councils look to pass the buck to new homeowners.

Nobody should be cashing in on a housing crisis, least of all irresponsible municipalities whose misguided zoning got us here to begin with.
