How taxing the rich can help fix the housing crisis Canada’s real estate sector is collecting billions in profit while incentivizing landlords to evict tenants and keep driving up rents

"Taxing the rich is more than a catchy slogan... We could be generating billions in new revenue to build affordable housing for Canadians." @ericashiner.bsky.social @c4tf.bsky.social ricochet.media/justice/hous... #cdnpoli #TaxTheRich

Extra grateful for Bluesky during this Meta outage. Not having to scuttle back to The Hellscape Formerly Known as Twitter™️ is luxurious. Just need more people to move into this space 🌌

I outlined @c4tf.bsky.social’s recent report by @silasxuereb.bsky.social on how tax breaks for real estate are fanning the flames of the housing crisis for @ricochetmedia.bsky.social. The financialization of housing is putting people on the street; we need to fund affordable housing and #TaxTheRich!

Not quite viral, but appreciated the response to my first piece in @canadiandimension.bsky.social 💫 canadiandimension.com/articles/vie...
