News, highlights and more relating to this great province!
You think you get to keep that money? Lol
A) Landlords will raise rents because they can, house prices will rise because banks will factor the newly available money into the amount you can afford to buy with.
B) The taxes the government gives up need to be collected elsewhere, or services will need to be slashed dramatically.
Conservatives going full-socialist? There's a catch :)
This isn't a socialist policy - in effect it just transfers wealth from the province's coffers to current land owners (who benefit from the payout a lot less than renters would).
Socialism for the wealthy and nothing for most of us.

I guess it's only classed as socialism when Liberals do it?
Your link is wrong, it points to a piece on safe injection sites.
But about your text: they're so desperate to prop up real estate values that they'll run the budget into the ground with "government handouts" lol
It always makes for a strong economy when the citizens have all of the money and the government is broke.
That ... Sounds like a horrible economy, with a bubble on top of it.
Nope, pass, 0/10, do not want to live there.
