Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:

Those are also dumb. We should stop zoning everything just for the sake of the environment and basic livability, even.
If there were more incentive to build housing then more people would get into construction, not the other way around. People don't train for industries that don't pay

Millions of immigrants in recent years and nothing is getting built
Need to fix policies before getting more immigrants
