>live in Toronto >rents are sky-high >Premier won't do anything useful because elections are coming up >introduces rent control (doesn't work in the long run)
all because suburbaniggers, NIMBYs, and realtors want to keep their single family properties and want the price to go up by keeping them zoned that way

Canada has vast amounts of land. Just live somewhere cheap like Brandon, MB instead of trying to crowd into the GTA.
Josiah Stewart
>what is a city There is a reason why people crowd together, it increases productivity
I guess Waterloo is a good candidate for a new city

>Brandon, MB You've never been to Manitoba, have you?

How exactly do you lower costs? Just build more on the outskirts?
Ryder Bailey
Stop building single family houses, rezone existing single family house areas and build more high rises
A simple way to increase demand that is working in NYC, LA, and London

I want to live in a city in a small cozy apartment with a cute girlfriend. I basically only need my bedroom and the bathroom anyway, so it doesn't need to be big.
Grayson Taylor
Where do you live now?
Nathan Diaz
I wouldn't consider that a commieblock. That looks really nice
Hudson Roberts
Suburbs of Utah. You need a car to get literally anywhere.
And I'm surrounded by either old retired people waiting to die, or young couples with 5 kids each

No, our centre is full of historic buildings and spires that shouldn't be blocked by tall buildings
