Reduce pressure on housing”? Please.
Three houses on my street are sitting empty, owned by wealthy people who don’t even live in Canada. That’s the reality on the ground.
You can cut immigration all you want, and it still won’t fix the housing crisis. And let’s be precise: immigrants are not the same as migrants. Canada has high levels of legal, permanent immigration, but very little irregular or transient migration compared to other Western countries.
The problem isn’t people needing homes.
It’s homes being treated like safety-deposit boxes for the global rich.
Empty houses, speculative ownership, and capital parked in real estate do far more damage than newcomers ever could. Blaming immigration is just a convenient distraction from the real issue: housing has been turned into an investment vehicle instead of a place to live.
Challenges the housing crisis narrative by critiquing real estate speculation and investment practices rather than blaming immigration policy.
