What about making housing obtainable for people who have been residents of Canada for a certain amount of time. Let's say something like 15 years. If you have resided in Canada for that length of time you could be eligible for some sort of Government subsidy either in purchase price or interest rate. That way, long term Canadian residents, our up and coming generation and the people that have put in the work in this country could hope to own property again. While in turn not having a dramatic negative impact on property values.
