Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
This is great news. We have a shortage of construction workers, so any moves that improve how we build is good.
We still need tax reforms, more construction workers, and governments building housing.
We also need more density being built. More SFH isn't going to fix our problems
Lots more inventory for speculators, hurray!
You're not wrong, but I spend a lot of time (rightly) shitting on our governments. It isn't enough, but it's an incremental move in the right direction. That deserves recognition.
