The only way to fix housing is massive public housing investment and all our parties are business class parties ergo it'll never happen. On this specific file, there is no difference between them.

I said the same thing to Adam Vaughn on Twitter ~2015 and he admonished me for being cynical and insisted this time, with the National Housing Plan, things would be different. Now he's out of politics and the problems have only gotten worse.

Well the BCNDP is making a meagre investment into explicit social housing, as a treat, but I seriously doubt it will make any real impact on rents. Especially with thousands of displaced people from wildfires within the province

maybe i'm just being a 4d chess believing doofus but i think maybe trudeau has accepted he's hosed next election and he knows pp won't actually do poo poo to fix housing so he's gonna let them win. i'm probably giving him too much credit tho.

i don't think we've seen the day where the liberals just throw up their hands and quit because they can't fix the messes they've made. the closest i could even imagine to 4d chess would be seeing something coming down the pipe in 2025 that will tar the sitting government for a generation, and letting the cpc go stand in front of it, but that seems incredibly unlikely for a whole bunch of reasons

CLAM DOWN posted:municipalities in bc are doing this, live in a better place Are they? That's great to hear. Be curious what kind of pushback they're facing. I know New Westminster did have a really good one, and they went to bat for it to actually establish they have the legal authority to ban renovictions (could easily see the court ruling this is beyond municipal jurisdiction). My understanding was though that as soon as the BC NDP introduced their weak sauce bill that slightly adjusted the admin for renovictions, which has not prevented BC from having the highest incidence of renoviction in the country, New Westminster repealed their actual ban.

So far I'm fairly unconvinced that the BC NDP's social housing agenda is anything more remarkable than the bare minimum required to do occasional ribbon cuttings to fundraise off of. Nothing anywhere near enough to make up for the fact that the affordability of low cost private housing is eroding away due to vacancy being ~0%. So far we continue to have a clear net loss of affordable housing despite whatever it is the government is doing. I have a bit more faith in Khalon's continued foreshadowing of a looming shake down of the Naughty List of Bad Municipalities, forcing them to actually create housing instead of being gated communities for the ultra wealthy. It remains to be seen though whether this is real systemic change or again simply creating enough perception of action to fundraise off of. Will Khalon actually hold mayors' feet to the fire and enforce real systemic change, or will actions like Vancouver's upcoming detached home upzone will be enough to satisfy him, a mild 16% increase in floorspace, and a baroque set of rules designed precisely to ensure that barely any new housing construction is viable at all. Wouldn't want any of that undesirable disruption that new housing would cause!

The last major systemic change died decades ago, they're extinct now. Only the white-throated false systemic change still thrives across North America.
