Yesterday, President Fraser was proud to present to Guelph City Council in support of the proposed by-law to permit four units as-of-right on most residential lots. This common sense change will give home buyers and renters more affordable options in our great city! @CamGuthrie

Thank you @DillonFraser3

Check out this excellent article from @_GDAR_. Ending exclusionary zoning across ON would help to build more missing middle housing & ensure Ontarians can achieve the dream of homeownership - another step towards reaching the goal of building 1.5 million homes! #onpoli #housing

Stakeholders of all stripes are joining the call to legalize gentle density and missing middle housing in Ontario. Thank you to @MoreNeighbours, @timhudak, @DanTisch and Dillon Fraser of @_GDAR_ for getting behind the movement to legalize housing. #onpoli #legalizeit

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

I was called to #Ottawa to be a witness for the Finance Committee and spoke about the housing and affordability crisis. Honoured to be called to speak on these issues for our city to help the Federal Government!

The Guelph & District Home Builders' Association is concerned that the Provincial reversal of both the Guelph and Wellington County Official Plans will exacerbate the housing shortage and further erode affordability... Read the full release here: gdhba.com/blog/provincia…

Premiers of all political stripes agree that further increases are counterproductive and will do more harm than good. That’s why I’ve also written to Prime Minister Trudeau asking him to work with all premiers to address the root causes of inflation.

Ahead of this week’s decision on interest rates, I’ve written to the Governor of the Bank of Canada to again express my opposition to any further rate hikes. Higher interest rates are hurting people and businesses that are already struggling to pay their bills.
