"It turns out that no amount of bureaucracy, bickering or political division can slow Canada down when under threat. So what are Ontario’s municipal governments doing to assist in the economic war effort? Sadly, not much — especially when it comes to housing." www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...
What should Toronto area mayors do during a trade war? Build.

If Trump is going to play this game, it's time for #Canada to rip up or re-think some foundational tenants of that regime.

New City of Mississauga report advocates for lowering Development Charges!
Never let anyone tell you that cities can't lower DCs. They have, and can.
High DCs are a choice, and one that hurts renters and homebuyers.

The post-Trudeau leadership race is an opp to put #housing & cost of living front-and-centre:

- Eliminate GST on new 🏠's
- Tie future Prov $$ transfers to 🏠 reform: eliminate DCs, simplify zoning, reduce red tape
- 🔼 skilled trades PR stream

The Ontario #HousingCrisis is #1 issue for those under 40 - and one of the biggest issues for the province as a whole.
These proposals are great. Every party should commit to these, along with other proposals in the Ontario Housing Affordability Task Force. #ONpoli

It appears that Vaughan Mayor Del Duca has just made the biggest reduction in Development Charges by any municipality in Ontario (however, from a very high starting point).
