It's opinion. Is that not allowed? Is this the wrong forum to share that?

@LivinginCloverdale it's opinion that you are sharing without openly disclosing your financial conflict of interest. You are attacking a legislation change that is attempting to release housing stock. While it may be your opinion it is less than honest to not disclose your financial interest.

@@robd8577 just like when the BCNDP implemented this and had numerous lobbying meetings with the hotel industry weeks prior? hmmmm.

I'm just guessing here but that 94% is probably where the majority of people could afford but don't want to live.

and what land would you use to build these houses? 94% of the land in the province is owned or leased by resource corporations.

Reducing immigration would be a bad thing, Canadians aren't having enough babies to keep the population growing.

Our population growth will not significantly decrease. If we do we would have bigger problems.

@LivinginCloverdale what do you mean it won't significantly decrease? Stats Can begs to differ.

@@LivinginCloverdale Wow! Low information voter!

Please explain that one like I'm a PE Teacher :)

@@LivinginCloverdale The chart leaves out important details that leaves people to make bad assumptions. The Airbnbs not on the market may have been bought by families who live in them. This is what happened in California when many of the apartments taken off the market as apartments were put back in the market as condos instead. Poor economics studies and biased research in the past assumes "there is less housing" if a rental unit goes to a family who owns the house and lives there.

and then the .8% of housing will flood the market and cause a crash?

do you have kids or travel with large groups?

@@LivinginCloverdale yes. But I'm just gonna stop you right now, because the point you think you're about to make is a fallacy.

@@mattymattffs my preference is larger condos or homes with even bigger groups. I understand you don’t like it but why is my opinion wrong and yours only right

@@LivinginCloverdale but that isn't an argument for market options being sat on

@@mattymattffs so then where does it stop? how much do we let the government tell us what to do with our own property? When this doesn't solve the crisis will they blame all the empty bedrooms and invent an empty bedroom tax?

bang on!
