Experts say Canada's regulations around parking, which in many cases is free, contributes to Canada’s housing crisis. What can be done about it?

Yet again, blame the people with no power to change a situation. Politicians are the cause of the housing crisis. Politicians are the reason we don't have public transit or walkable cities.

The article is blaming politicians.

"Much of this has to do with “parking minimums” – or the requirement that developers must build a certain number of parking spaces for any new development."

The article isn't blaming the people physically parking a vehicle, but is blaming the policies that dictate the parking spaces.
