If you did this, they'd just raise rents be what you're claiming.

Any answer to this problem that doesn't involve both taxing the everloving shit out of investment income and property holdings, as well as a massive build of public housing, is basically deck-chair shuffling.

The Liberals and Conservatives do not want to fix this problem because a) a huge chunk of the Canadian economy depends on property speculation, and b) they and their donors make more money on the problem than they would on any solution..
