Rent disputes surge in Quebec City as tenants challenge high increases Applications to fix or review rents at the Quebec City office of the Tribunal administratif du logement (TAL) have nearly tripled over the past five years. Housing advocates say larger rent increases and a tighter rental market are leading more tenants to challenge proposed hikes, even as many fear the lengthy and stressful legal ... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-city-rent-increase-dispute-9.7299940?cmp=rss

The shibboleth is dead. For 30 years, Canberra's consensus: house prices must go up forever. Now 61% of Australians across ages, incomes, parties say they need to fall. Even 14% would accept a 20%+ drop on their own home. Labor's budget: 2% slower growth. Coalition: howls over the word 'correction'. Meanwhile, mortgages have tripled, homeownership is cratering, and a whole generation is locked out. The housing theory of everything has failed. Time to stop treating shelter as an investment casino. #auspol #housingcrisis https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/a-generations-long-shibboleth-about-house-prices-has-just-been-shattered-20260715-p60fe0.html https://vic.fusionparty.org.au/policies/tax-the-land-windfalls

"Tell your MP: Canadians can’t afford another risky pipeline & tanker project" Despite promises that a new west coast pipeline would be funded by the private sector, Mark Carney & Danielle Smith want to spend tens of billions of taxpayer dollars on it, without letting Canadians have a say in the decision. Instead of spending that money on the actual challenges Canadians are facing -- housing, hospital wait times, grocery prices and clean drinking water on Indigenous reserves, to name a few -- our federal government is bailing out the oil industry again, even as Canada is dealing with floods, heat waves, wildfires and extreme weather. Mark Carney says Canada cannot afford to meet its climate targets. But what we really cannot afford is to spend tens of billions of taxpayer funds on a new pipeline project that will make the climate crisis even worse. https://www.wcel.org/blog/tell-your-mp-canadians-cant-afford-another-risky-pipeline-tanker-project #Canada #CDNPoli #ClimateCrisis #NoPipelines #BCPoli #CostOfLivingCrisis #HousingCrisis #HealthCareCrisis #NoBailouts #Polycrisis

@timrichards@aus.social i neither understand nor trust peeps who regard their house/apartment as other than a home. once i learn they see it as an investment, i want nothing more to do with them. for me this is a massive litmus test of character & morality. #auspol #housing #housingcrisis #ethics

F#@K@aus.social off Murdoch. Imagine running a front page lamenting falling house prices while people are literally living in tents. That tells you everything about whose side you’re on. The Daily Telegraph isn’t concerned about Australians. It’s concerned about protecting property speculation and keeping housing unaffordable. Every young Australian locked out of home ownership is collateral damage in Murdoch’s campaign to defend the wealth of landlords and developers. Journalism holds power to account. Propaganda protects it. #murdochmedia #auspol #housingcrisis #homelessness #systemrigged #MurdochRoyalCommission

The Liberals housing plan:

  1. Cut pharmacare
  2. No windfall tax on oil & gas
  3. No non-market housing targets
  4. $1B+ bailout for condo developers who "can't sell at a loss"

Developer losses get socialism. Everyone else gets capitalism.

This is not a housing policy. It's a wealth protection policy.

https://thepoint.com.au/off-the-charts/260429-investors-fled-victoria-houses-stayed-putInvestors fled Victoria, houses stayed put Changes to land taxes in Victoria pushed landlords out of the market — but didn’t reduce housing supply or drive up rents, showing that scrapping the CGT discount could improve affordability nationwide. #AusPol #WhyTheFuckIsLabor #HahahahaLiebs #NatsAreNuts #GreensYEAH #VoteGreens #VoteProgIndies #PHONkedinthehead #housingcrisis
