Ontario also wants to count student residences in the housing tally to make numbers look good, so our leaders contradict each other

There has been many similar plans over the past decade and look where we are? Buying into the propaganda. Just like the net zero emissions goals by some long off date.

That said, I am hoping this one goes somewhere, but I am not holding my breath, especially with a change in government likely coming.
