People here thinking conservative will fix any of this ? like what people don't get is that conservative are still in government and are the only ones stopping us from building affordable housing.

Not all poor people living in streets are drug addicts. there can be people who are betrayed by the people they trusted or people living in slums who are earning less/nothing. Government can get them a better home/hut (1940 homes) for least money possible. indian slums, they are not drug addicts. they would probably not have money to even buy food. Earlier indian government was giving grocery cards where people can buy free grocery like rice, wheat and other cereal, fruits and veggies they have to buy with their money. anyways smallest house possible are always good because even the biggest building will fall first during an EARTHQUAKE.

We’re having to build an entire London Ontario every year to accommodate his immigration goals. New court houses, hospitals, schools, jails. And number one HOUSES

It's good to know that it isn't just Australians who lack empathy. You could always build massive detention centres and lock people away for years, causing huge suicide rates in people who are seeking asylum. \n\nYou should come and visit some detention centres sometime you can bond with a huge part of the Australian population on how people dont have a right to seek out a safe place to live, according to you.

Why don't they just build more houses??? Are they stupid????

The west will never treat u as humans.get ur shit together and get united help each other out asians african arabs u all have a rich culture u r respectful people trust me the west is lead by a bunch of religious fanatics that are pretending to be secular just so to keep u away from ur own religion ur own culture and when the time is right for them to steike they will not waste a time to attack u.just build weapon industries,u will need em to defend urselves.the west is not all too powerful but their bluff game is top notch trust mw they arw afraid of u guys that one day u guys will realize that u can fight against these western powers n defeat them aswell thats what they r afraid of n all u have t do is dont give in to fear of the west n thats it.they have nukes so do u they can build war machines so can u.u r 2/3rd of the world total population.

Not a supporter or apologist of Saudi but he's right and eloquent. Of course the West, US and Israel wants the Arab world to let in Palestinians. This is so that Israel can start building new illegal settlements in Gaza like they have in the West Bank.

He's a sleeper build 100%

Build a wall we need Trump here

The real problem are politically slanted channels like this one. Don't get your panties in a twist: nothing in this video was a lie. Nothing not true. But like far too much now, it simply seeks to project a vibe to capitalize on the feelings of its targeted audience. Immigrants, drugs and big government, oh my. Is that really all there is to this though? Are your feelings that there are too many immigrants or the simplicity of a solution such as just lowering the price really all there is to it? Ask yourself: what role does the government play in prices that are too high? Does the city of Toronto own the buildings or set the prices? Who does? If the government came in tomorrow with the military and took ownership of all of the buildings and single family dwellings in order to lower their prices and repurpose the land more efficiently for denser urban housing at lower prices, how would you respond to that? Or should the government spend all of the money they are making to buy up properties at market value and then rebuild for more efficient, cheaper and denser housing? What would your response be to that? Immigrants: there are too many. Is it that simple? What would the population of Canada look like in 20 years with just the birth rate of non-recent Canadian citizens (ie no immigrants from the past 15-20 years)? That there is a problem is obvious. Playing on the feelings of group A or group B, showing them the things they fear and presenting it as something everyone does not already know while deliberately ignoring other vital parts of the problem is predatory at best. Your feelings, opinions and gut will solve nothing. Blinding yourself to entire parts of broken systems will solve nothing. Videos and channels like this seek only the engagement that the algorithm demands. It will only deepen the mistrust between citizens and their fellow citizens and citizens and the government, that is, their fellow citizens that have been elected to be said government (not some invading outside force beyond all control) and increase the polarization of groups in an already strained society. It will solve nothing.

I am born and raised in canada. Im building my business and getting an eb5 in America. Canada isnt worth it

There is a section of Indians who would rather get shot, treated like shit and work as cashier or delivery agent at a fast food joint but won't build something great at home and would blame India for their incompetency and greed.

Ford no different we build new hospitals...more additions on them...but who is going to work in them?? We have no doctors!!!

Egypt: Building more walls

follow the money, trudeau is highly invested in real estate. gotta drive the prices higher. bring in more people, making building more difficult, and scarcity will drive price.

We must have immigration. We Canadians are too highly educated to want to do manual labour. We also do need immigration to prop up our pension plans, which will run out of funds in a few years. We are discriminatory with respect to professional immigrants. Shame.\n\nCovid caused a 2-year slowdown in construction, and in strong inflation. Trudeau is the mouthpiece for the technocrats who advise him on immigration, and the ability to match demand with supply. Immigration, healthcare, whatever-policy is not a one-man (king) decision. The liberals set the policy, not the quotas. As for housing, quotas were set and the liberals advised and provided confirmation.\n\nWith respect to housing, many contractors could not afford to build, given the almost doubling in the cost of raw materials. As well, infrastructure provided by cities, in some occasions, could not match the installation of sewers, water supplies, garbage disposal, etc.\n\nTrudeau is a convenient victim. And if you mean by Trudeau, that it is the Liberals in power, you must also include the NDP, who provided the support to keep the Liberals in power. The NDP have a large impact on the immigration decisions. Blame them as well.\n\nAnd if you think that Pierre P with the Conservative party can do better. Lets see how he does in his second term, if there is a second term.

The main problem is that Canada an country with the most room of any developed nation. With the most wood of any developed nation has the least homes of any developed nation.\n\nIt's caused by lack of building permits. And Canadian standards on housing sizes being large. This crisis shouldn't even exist.

He is just building future fully committed liberal ndp voters. What’s wrong in this ??

The stinky Indians and Chinese in our Canadian Parliament ride Trudeau in bed every night. They are the men in bed. \n ✝️ Our European Christian forefathers died in the Atlantic Ocean to build North America.

And all lining up for National Cheque Day, which seems to somewhat of a monthly holiday in Canada! Where is my cheque, dammit? I am entitled to it! Make it a Global Holiday! Canada needs a national Get To Work Day! Too many jailhouse junky. One side of the bars, jailhouse. Outside of the bars, junkie. And the cycle seems to repeat itself. The benefits of a free healthcare system paid by welfare and social assistance. And toppled by a wave of migrants from third world countries searching for benefits and cheques themselves, making this country more third world by per capita as well. Where is National Cheque Day? You do not provide any gdp. Nor service. How is the almighty Canadian dollar worth anything? You didn’t like Nazis? What was that strong German work ethic? The slightly more educated and hard working enough to grow food for their families until groups of marauders start coming in to steal it all? Why did those genocides happen in Africa except for and only because those exact same reasons. You gotta work in life. That is an unfortunate requirement. Stop playing the lazy man’s game and blood sucking and feeding off of others. Always talking about the genocides! They murdered off the criminals and bums. Strong workers never beg. They never have to. They always work. Tells you something. Horn of Plenty and more like Hawaii on our Strong Rock! Why did settler Europeans call Canada ‘Thieves Land’ and called Canadians ‘Mungies’? Because of way too many people eating hard working efforts like they did with the Nazis trying to preserve their crops for their children. You come here to work. To build sustainable life. I do not feel sorry for Bum Wars! Jailhouse Junkie! One side of the bars, Jailhouse. Other side, Junkie! And always the same routine! It is an embarrassment. And compliments of a free healthcare system and government that gives you drug money to test their drugs. An exact cause of the drug epidemic. Thinking like on Endore, they even began eating Ewoks! And some were even emotionally attached to their kissing cuz, half man, have Terrier, Schnauzer, and Lasapso!

Canada is drunk on immigration. It’s completely addicted to it. Yet we do not build extra houses, schools, or hospitals. Housing shortage? No problem, more house building immigrants! And so it goes on. This topic is ignored just as the population growth everywhere is ignored. More people, absolutely. But use less fuel, less medical care, less farmland for houses! Build on the green belt……Insanity.

He came to Winnipeg grandstanding announcing that his government will be spending over a billion dollars on housing… too little too late. In fact I doubt any of it will happen, just another billion dollars handed over to his buddies. Meanwhile independent builders are building like crazy in Manitoba.

Why are we building new houses for immigrants when we should be focusing on the canadians who have contributed their entire lives paying taxes and give them new housing ?!

These clowns could not organize a pissup in a brewery. Could not build a ham sandwich.

While the US and the EU debated whether or not 0.3% of the total population per year was more than could be supported over the long term, that idiot Trudeau has been holding at 1.1% of the total population per year. Now we are 4.5million family residences in arrears in a country that only has about 14.5million residences. So the idiot, Trudeau thinks if he tosses a little stimulus money around, which he borrowed and which taxpayers now have to pay interest on, that every 3 households in Canada will be able to kick in enough money to build an extra house, while also paying their mortgage. Do you understand how stupid Trudeau is?

It's also because of the high interest rates.Nobody wants to build anything and produce more housing right now it's at a trickle

FOR EIGHT YEARS TRUDEAU DIDDEN GIVE DAM A BOUT HOUSEING DUTIL PIERRE START WINNING ABOUT BUILDING HOUSEES\nNOW HE IS THROUING MONEY EVERY WEAR WHEAR IS THAT MONEY TREE HE IS SO FONEY WHEAR IS THE NDP VOTERS GOWN\nWHEN YOU LOSE YOUR HOUSE DONT GO CRYING THE BLUES IT NOT A JOKE YOU BETTER WAKE UP NOW GO AFTER YOUR M P\n WHO YOU VOTET FOR UNLES YOU WANT TO LIVE IN A TENR IN THE PARK GO VISET TENT CITY SEE IF YOU LIKE THAT WEAR YOU WILL BE WINCH TRUDEAU GETS FINISHED WITH CANCDIAN DONT LET IT HAPPEN

$15 billion dollars to build 30,000 new apartments…take a guess at who they are going to be built for?

The thing is that 'local' people don't have enough kids, instead of building a more secure society and encouraging people to have more kids, Trudeau decided to import foreign workers that can directly contribute to your pension system. Now when you cut off too fast, Canada will fall into a quick population pitfall very fast

Of course the refuvees get help first. It looks good for the Liberals. Id be pissed and tbrowing fists if i paid i to the system fkr 25 or 30 years and these people get better and more help then i ever have. Ive been down there and they are ao fucking rude to people. They get drunk and then get mad when you dont give them money. Fuckkkkk that. Paid a smuggler and a 5k plane ride from africa or middle east, but youre poor? They are taking advantage of our system and they KNOW they are. But don't care.l.\nT\nLOGIXX is a joke security company. They literally park behind my building in visitors and sit there for 3 hours doing nothing. He gets out and walks around the building. Takes 10 mins. Then sits back there for 3 hours.

All the west countries should stop giving permanent residency to expats and just give them 5 to 10 year work permit so expats of 'N' number can come here on tourist/visit visa and ger hired on a work permit of 5 to 10 years, have better life in their home country where they are considered first, where they can build big homes without loan and buy cars and save money have better life, and you guys keep your people first. Most of the white are homeless and jobless on the road, please help them

Says the hypocrite who gave 15billion to Korea to bring in 1500 Korean Migrant workers to build a battery factory in Ontario.

Bill Gates did not build microsoft, he stole it.

Well of course they'll be able to afford them, all they'll have to do is use seized assets from frozen bank accounts of people who protest the government to pay for everything, and any remaining surplus of immigrants they could probably just eventually convince into medically assisted suicide in the case of any medical emergency. No skin off their bones. Housing? Nah you should just build a log cabin up north, lots of space up there. ?

One doesn't need a house in Canada. You go rent an apartment and you may live. Of course, if you earn 2000.00 to 4000.00 CAD per month. Which is rather difficult for immigrants. Usually, your pay is 10.00 CAD per hour, which gives you 1600.00 CAD per month. Which is way too little for covering your bills. Government instead of building cheap communal blocks of flats is building condos. But the cheapest condominium costs 500K CAD and show me people who can afford it....? You buy and pay monthly rent, yeah 2500.00 4500.00 per month only to cover rent. Plus 186.00 for internet and TV, 30.00 for stationary phone, 45.00 for mobile, 600.00 for monthly food for 2, plus meds, dentist, cabbies, electricity, water, then you add toilette, laundry liquid, toilet paper, towel paper, cat food, dog food, then the bill goes over 6000.00 if you wanna live in the condo. You have always private sector housing where monthly rent is from 900.00 to 2500.00, which depends on the district and quality of the apartment. For the landlord, you must pay monthly and renew lease each year. If you have roaches or bed bags, it's a bigger problem for you. Not every landlord uses paste. They use spray, which is not a roach killer at all, and whole your apartment will stink for months. Private sector has thin ceilings and wooden floors, so loud noise of your neighbour's may disturb your night rest or cigarettes. Smoke may fill up your space. Beware when getting sick. Family doc is unavailable, usually if you have one or at all if you don't.

I sold a beautiful property in Canada ten acres of maple bush with a home . Just north of Toronto .it was difficult but l read the tea leaves.....would it be worth much more today... obviously...but l was lucky to build a beautiful home on a whitesand beach in Asia.....taxes are $500.00 a year hydro $200.00....insurance and other costs are insignificant.....the big gain is peace of mind and absolute privacy with only a fraction of the sale of my Canadian home..never going back

This issue needs to be escalated. Why should a customer always have the right to abuse the employees for whatever reason and treat them like a bloody pet?? What's the contribution of the company for their employees in this case?? Why should anyone be mistreated with pure racist remarks and business remains silent for whitewashing all the shit for the sake of building a humble image of the company?? That definitely is the revision of the pre 1865 era yet again with a new face. ??

Why is everyone picking on Indians, only. They work hard, build and grow every community, and do not commit crimes.

Why do they always talk about Canada has a house crisis when all they do is want to build condos

Y'all can just build more....\nChina handles a population of 1 billion, so does India.\nDon't let any of these first world countries say they can not handle an influx of 10-20 million people.\nSTART BUILDING and stop corporate greed.

2 Words HOUSING BUBBLE. Remember that for the last 5 years we have been warned that the housing bubble will burst. Well these governments knew this and came up with a plan.\nIf Canada, Australia, UK and USA had not taken almost 10 million migrants the Housing bubble would have burst and property prices would have plunged at least 50% worse than in 2008, banks and major property developers would have collapsed and the building industry would have collapsed. and there could have been an economic collapse. \nSo they flooded our countries with every kind of Migrant, it did not matter, refugees, students, skilled etc. These millions of immigrants have rented rooms, flats, investors rushed in to invest thereby, leading to huge shortage and massive demand, which inflated house prices. Who is to blame? Politicians created the demand, Bankers were ready to lend increasing their assets and bonuses, Investors exploited the situation.

None of this would be a problem if we didnt have climate zealots trying to grenade the Canadian economy. If we where focused on getting canadian oil and gas to tidewater, refining, manufacturing. Building 8 giant icebreakers and opening up the northern passage.. we couldnt build banks fast enough to store thd money. Global interests seem to need to impede and remove Canada from their chess board or we undermine energy conttol.

Yup, thats the type of people you guys want in the country. Mexicans were ok going over their to work build a house and return home. But ok....

700,000 of the 1.1 million that came to Canada are students. The international student system needs to be overhauled. The university/colleges who want international students must register with the feds. Those with permits MUST BE MADE to build, own, and provide international students with housing. When an international student is offered a placement in a Canadian education institution, they are also offered housing built by that institution. Once acceptance is made, then the details are sent to the feds and the visa is finally issued. This way, everyone who comes, has housing, it takes pressure off the domestic housing market, the students themselves know where they are going to be and how much things will cost, including the housing, and the Canadian institutions who want the stdents, have to now pay for them. This will force the education institutions to build more housing, lower the number of students they bring in, and offer much more remote learning opportunities if the program really does not require the students to come at all. Pass the bill onto the institutions, and the problem will quickly resolve. The federal government is being LAZY. If it wants people, it has to focus on a system that makes sense for people to come to Canada, insure the institutions dont take advantage of these students AND NOT shift the housing problem to the domestic market. The federal and provincial governments also need to organize themselves with each other. The provinces should tell the federal government how many they can take in based on housing stock and unemployment rate, and the feds only grant visas based on those numbers, and the visas require those coming to be in the province that has space for them. This way, you help to take pressure off the larger cities and spread growth to areas of the country that wants the growth. The approach needs to be bottom up, so needs and capacity drive the numbers allowed in.

Yeah? Well, not to worry...this world is about to change beyond the imagination...canada and the rest of the world will be living in abundance in the near future...no matter, I plan on leaving canada when things become better, and they WILL get better...but, for me, architecture is a major issue...the buildings/houses here look more like institutes and 'feel' cold; whereas some other places look more like what I love...Tartarian buildings...so I'm gonna be moving to a place that has more Tartarian buildings that are more welcoming and warm...just sayin... ✌✌

The homeless population is 99% made up of people born in Canada. Immigrants are working two jobs, some outperforming the ones born here. A lot of them doing jobs “Canadians” don’t want to do. The housing crisis has more to do with the restrictive zoning laws that make it hard to build new housing, which benefits the few billionaires who own the few construction companies allowed to operate. Blaming immigration is simply being intellectually lazy.

They invite immigrants without building infrastructure and more jobs, this is a ponzie scheme, a country stands while immigrants come and bring their savings with them.

Where was this? Building and place tell us?

still its so hard to build housing, and its so hard to find rental for people who has low credit score.

To be honest, there are too many Indians immigrating to Canada and they take over all the jobs in government units. Even with new policies, Indian officials will follow India's corrupt ways. I was surprised at the rampant sexual harassment in Canada and how many workers are not actually working. Many construction workers spend five hours chatting and one hour building a house. Canada's rising prices and housing crisis are largely caused by India. But Indians will put the blame on the Chinese, they really don't realize the real reason
