🚨 Carney's housing plan in one tweet: 📈 Government policies drove up land costs. 🏗️ Development fees made building uneconomic. 😶‍🌫️ Interest rates crushed buyers. 🏢 Thousands of finished condos sit unsold. Now taxpayers are being asked to bail out developers by converting units into "affordable housing." They created the crisis. They're billing you for the cleanup. Then they'll hold a press conference and call it a success. 🇨🇦 This isn't a housing plan. It's a taxpayer-funded rescue of government failure. #CdnPoli #HousingCrisis #Carney

While every other business, resource company and entrepreneur in B.C. has to compete for financing on merit, the NDP is rolling out a $1B loan guarantee program available ONLY to First Nations groups. If they default, banks get made whole and taxpayers are left holding the bag

I wondered if my nephew would be compensated one day for going to elementary school on a reserve, but he won’t. He’s dead. At age 19 he was sold fentanyl by a Native dealer.

BC NDP Minister of Housing applauds shifting taxes from property to labour. Omits 2,200 unit bailout for corporations paid by further taxation of labour. Take home wages ⬇️ land values ⬆️. #vanre

🚨 Mark Carney says Metro Vancouver has 2,500 completed condos sitting empty. Developers don't want to sell at a loss. So Ottawa and BC are stepping in with billions in infrastructure money, cutting development charges by up to 50%, and using financing tools to convert vacant condos into affordable housing. Later, when asked if governments could buy unsold units from developers, Carney replied: "You can do both." Taxpayers becoming the backstop for the condo market? 🤔

BREAKING: All five floor crossers, Chris d'Entremont, Michael Ma, Matt Jeneroux, Lori Idlout, and Marilyn Gladu, voted AGAINST killing Bill C-9 and voted to approve the Senate amendments, sending the bill to Royal Assent. A shameful disgrace.

You pay too much tax because there are way too many overpaid paper pushers in Ottawa. The federal bureaucracy will cost $79 billion this year — $10 billion more than last year. Carney keeps saying he will “spend less.” But Carney is spending billions more than Trudeau.
