Within five years, the construction of new homes in the country’s hottest markets is projected to slow to near-zero. Less construction, fewer homes, and fewer jobs – all at a time when the country needs more housing than ever.

The globe and mail does not inform opinion, it sucks corporate dick shamelessly and publicly. The author should be charged with public indecency.

Why are the reserve funds so large and unspent? Because we're a metropolis and we don't build and fund projects like subways inch by inch as development projects are done.

Their solution is always to cut taxes and have government subsidize private profits, but the math never adds up. Who's holding the debt bag? They never pay. Shit, the author calls for socialism on development charges, but ... wait for it ... not the profits!

The G&M talks out of it's ass like a junkie trying to find more heroin. Just say whatever random bullshit you think will give you the profits you are jonesing for, no matter the incoherence. Only bliss matters.

G&M - fuck you, I'm getting mine.
