Ontario Housing Crisis

Doug Ford has been in power for four years. Now, two months before the next election, he's taking action!

Premier Doug Ford's government is unveiling the first phase of its plan to deal with the skyrocketing cost of buying a home in Ontario.

The last few years have been brutal:

In 2021, the average sale price of homes in the province was 44 per cent higher than two years earlier, according to figures from the Canadian Real Estate Association.

I just looked online at a nearby house for sale: 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1400 sq. ft. That's a small house by modern standards. Asking price? $1.45 million.
