All I'm saying is that Canada being the second largest land mass is not super relevant to the discussion of housing affordability.

- Teever 3y agoIt is if you're not being pedantic and you can acknowledge that the fraction of that land mass that is habitable is still huge and connected to infrastructure that would facilitate further expansion.

If I were living in Hong Kong then I’d cut the government some slack for housing being unaffordable. Here in Canada though? It’s absurd how much space we have and yet we can’t get anything done. This emphasizes the degree of government dysfunction, which was my original point.
