Happy to see the Housing Generator fund pay out with some YIMBYism, but imho it doesn't go far enough. I hate and fear Poilievre, but he's right when it comes to the carrot-and-stick approach to municipal governments blocking housing:
They do not deserve the carrot. They deserve the stick. Poilievre, being a gigantic asshole, is much more willing to use the stick.
I don't care what Poillièvre says he'll do. He has a voting history, and his party has a very long history of siding with landlords and CEOs. Anyone who genuinely believes Poillièvre is going to help the little guy and not simply enrich the landlords just because he says he's going to do something is a complete moron. He's voted against it in the past, and he will in the future, because it'll hurt his own bottom line.
