For anybody who wants to discuss tangible actions around telling our gov't they are not doing a good job on climate change (and everything else, really) we're starting a #thisIsNotFine movement. So far we're developing stickers and postcards. Drop in to share your ideas, and help with anything other folks are working on. A landslide is made of many small pebbles moving at once. 💪🇨🇦 (boosts appreciated, I'm on a small server here) #CNDpoli #CANpoli #climateCrisis #wildfires #smoke

It's hard to avoid overquoting https://thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026/07/09/No-One-Discussing-This-Bigger-Condo-Bailout/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=grassroots from @thetyee@mstdn.ca . Highly recommend reading the whole thing if you're affected by city living costs in Canada. We have tried the supply-only, deregulation-first approach for years. It has produced record construction in some periods and record unaffordability in the same places. The dirt under the building continues to inflate faster than incomes. Halving development charges and gutting inclusionary zoning will not break that cycle. It will merely subsidize and protect the participants who have profited most from it. and the author does offer sensible suggestions: Increased density or reduced charges should be granted only in exchange for substantial, permanent affordability — through strong inclusionary requirements, public land trusts or direct capture of land lift to fund non-market housing. #Canada #CNDPoli #Politics #housing
