Both the federal Liberals and Conservatives have recently announced that they're getting into the housing business. So have provincial and municipal governments. Want to see what government housing looks like? Just visit any native reserve in Canada. Governments should facilitate construction projects by reducing red tape, making land available and maybe backing loans. Beyond that, governments should not be in the business of building homes.
@Martyupnorth_2 They will create "projects" that will be riddled with drugs and crime.
@Martyupnorth_2 Actually I helped wire some homes on a reserve they were all mobile homes but the conditions were very horrible in which they became. It was sad because they did have the opportunity for,some very good paying job in the area. Only a few took real advantage
@Martyupnorth_2 The government is the worst at implementing anything, just add housing to the list.
@Martyupnorth_2 Or they look like former E-Europe, or Russia, Ukraine or N Korea today.
@Martyupnorth_2 The CPC it is not getting into the housing business. In fact that's the point of their platform plank that they're going to leave it to the private sector.
@Martyupnorth_2 You can also look at a lot of the PMQs on any military base. A lot of them are run down and barely meet code. While they are slowly upgrading, it is decades past due.
@Martyupnorth_2 Welllllll…I know you are exaggerating, but, come on, Marty…you should say “some” housing. Karens are going to believe this is the way it is everywhere…
