Two years after Valérie Plante’s administration said a new housing bylaw would lead to the construction of 600 new social housing units per year, the city hasn’t seen a single one.

The Bylaw for a Diverse Metropolis forces developers to include social, family and, in some places, affordable housing units to any new projects larger than 4,843 square feet.

If they don’t, they must pay a fine or hand over land, buildings or individual units for the city to turn into affordable or social housing.

    Lmao, this is a post about Canada. Your post is the clown meme of far right bullshit, ending in a claim about genocide.

    You can use your “logic” to justify anything. It’s totally garbage. “The world is ending therefore X is justified.” Just grow up and deal with it or leave and go somewhere else.

    If you don’t have the political fortitude to be able to play ball in a democracy, then you won’t have what it takes to govern a country if you succeed in overthrowing it by violence.

      And I am talking about the U.S. You know, your downstairs neighbor who is going through literally the same problem as you are, along with a host of other political problems, who is about to ignite into a hot civil war that will send millions of refugees up your way, who will want housing that is not there, causing a homeless crisis in your country worse than the one you have now if you don’t listen to me and fucking make your government do what it’s supposed to be doing.

      Maybe you guys could do it peacefully, I don’t know. But I don’t see you trying even that. Are you sitting around waiting for the breakdown of the U.S. before you think you have the moral authority to act? Or do you just not care?

        Your 10 day old account is from a Finnish Lemmy instance and already has 454 comments. All you write about is this imaginary impending civil war - 100% troll account.
