CaledonMoneypit 🇨🇦<p>Really good analysis of the housing policy positions for CPC, Liberals, and NDP. The best direction - based on non-market solutions- is arguably presented by the NDP, which is unfortunate because they may not be a factor in this election. A minority government would allow the NDP to perhaps turn some of their ideas, with some better substance, into legislation and implementation. </p><p><a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/CanPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanPoli</span></a> #<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/CanadaElection2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanadaElection2025</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/HousingCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HousingCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/AffordableHousing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AffordableHousing</span></a> <br><a href="https://youtu.be/1k6hWGQ83l4?si=zMyxkHQZn44RVBBL" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/1k6hWGQ83l4?si=zMyxkH</span><span class="invisible">QZn44RVBBL</span></a></p>
