Superman is the story of an immigrant who grew up in Kansas, landed a low-paying job as a reporter in Metropolis, and still had time for a hobby because urban housing was affordable.
All those housing workers are welcome in Canada!
Housing is essential national infrastructure and the foundation of a strong economy

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard
Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) says up to 4.8 million new homes will need to be built over the next decade to restore affordability levels last seen in 2019, based on projected demand.

Exactly. Solving homelessness requires all three levels of government working together. thestarphoenix.com/opinion/colu...
Wrapped a whirlwind trip to Ottawa with a very positive meeting with housing minister @gregorrobertson.bsky.social
I love this gov’ts sense of urgency on housing. We haven’t heard much from the gov’t on homelessness but it’s clear that sense of urgency also applies to homelessness for Robertson.
A smart and powerful take down of Doug Ford’s MAGA inspired criminalization of people experiencing homelessness by @dianacmcnally.bsky.social

This appears to be exactly what @armineyalnizyan.bsky.social was warning us about - large American hedge funds buying up large amounts of rental property at a discount www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...
Powerful
This is very enocouraging! Pairing @gregorrobertson.bsky.social and his proven leadership on homelessness with hard charging PM Carney determined to sort out the housing crisis and big things are possible.

Brilliant and exactly right. Corey does a great job here pointing out the stupidity of Alberta independence talk.
Danielle Smith is stoking a dangerous, ignorant and harmful sovereignty debate for no other reason than to protect herself from members of her own coalition
Confederation is like a family. Ultimatums, threats and escape plans are not a way to make a family work.
Premier Smith should ask herself what her intentions are here. Is she comfortable with where this might lead?
Are we, as Albertans?
Let’s be constructive. Canada is worth it.
“…this morning, from a war zone half a world away, I was reading about your election. And for the first time in days, I exhaled.
A small, almost invisible breath. Relief.
And then came gratitude…
You didn’t just choose kindness or experience…
You chose not to flirt with fascism.”
From Ukraine.
This is a great video for an essential discussion - WE HAVE TO - find a way to tackle development charges if we're going to create housing affordability. If we tax housing like we tax cigarettes we'll get the same result.
STUNNING new data from Abacus Data - 53% of Canadians - 22 million (!!!) people - and 73% of 18 to 29 year olds, are worried they could lose their home as a result of the U.S. trade war.

Anti-evidence, anti-recovery, wasteful, unconstitutional exercise in cruelty.
Fantastic new non-partisan housing initiative launched: The Housing Canada Coalition.
It contains the Housing Canada plan, which we prepared on behalf of the coalition.

It’s time to end the housing game.
A new election campaign focused on solving the housing crisis and ending homelessness launched today

🚨 “We can’t solve this without population-based housing.”
Dr. Alex Abramovich message is clear: shelters aren’t safe, and prevention must start long before homelessness begins.

“St. Thomas has reduced chronic homelessness by 30% in the span of 7 months by increasing outreach efforts and placing people into highly supportive housing.
126 people secured housing between July 2023 & January 2024 with the help of social services, emergency shelters, and community partners.”
Trump is right to fear a Canada-Europe team-up. But Canada must rise to the challenge first
The latest from the Globe's business commentary, by Aaron Burnett:
"You can't fix a poisoned supply with treatment."
This. Exactly.
Just a reminder…
In just a few days Danielle Smith is flying to the US on taxpayer dollars…
To hang out with this guy.

Manitoba is showing how housing focused encampment response works - and is far more effective than enforcement. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...
My government is eliminating the GST on all homes up to $1 million for first-time home buyers.
