    The trouble is “in conjunction” the federal government has seemed willing to help fund this sort of thing for years. But provincial governments have no interest in doing anything.

    This is why the federal government has started bypassing the provinces to work directly with municipalities.

      Yes, true, and as I mentioned the cons and libs are ideologically opposed to risking the uppermid property equity of their main supporters.

      However cf. the housing co-op initiatives of the 70’s and 80’s and other initiatives that don’t require the provinces.
