    So basically your solution is to give up!! why do you even have a job? quit then and save us taxpayers some money

    How about addressing fairness? Could you even suggest solutions that would slowly take "investments" out of much needed housing? Like increasing taxes on people who hoard property and housing and seek maximum profit.

    This video doesn't mention any way to address this? stop taking that high 6 figure wages to tell us that housing is unaffordable.

    CMHC is a disgrace and should be disbanded. Let mortgage interest rates reflect a bank’s level of comfort with the risk.
    CMHC had a place for soldiers returning from a war who didn’t have regular credit history on which to base a mortgage application. However, like many administrations in government, instead of winding down when it was no longer useful, it grew into the monstrous bureaucracy that it is today.

    Several million a house? How is that affordable except for rich Billionaires that "Invest" in Canada's Tax system

    Long story short lower the prices so families can actually use them. Cmhc is part of this problem. Allowing these type of loans are predatory

    Most Canadians are too busy patting themselves on the back, telling everyone that we have it great and we're better than the U.S. Canada is high on its own farts. It flat out sucks right now. Wages have been stagnant for decades while the cost of living (especially housing) has skyrocketed. Immigration is as high as ever before, exasperating the housing crunch.
    People like to compare it to developing countries and say our standard of living could be worse, but why are we comparing ourselves to these other countries? We should compare Canada to Canada before, just like a human being should do. Things are indisputably worse, most notably for younger generations: millennials, gen z.
    Countries like UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, are all experiencing identical problems. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? Canada should join the U.S like Greenland.
