    Paywall. But, from the brief blurb I could see, it looks like Chow is doing her best to reach out to people. This states she met up with John Baird, likely to get him to help advocate for better funding for Toronto. Seems like a good move before meeting up with Doug Ford, which the article states will happen next week.

    If the feds want to keep the immigration flowing, they need to reinvigorate the CMHC to start building real serious social housing again. Leaving it up to the province just allows them to kick the can down to the regional municipalities who have far fewer resources to develop at the scale we need in the GTA.

    Right now it’s all private investment making the big moves, which leads to a bunch of high end apartments with useless fancy amenities that only serve to justify astronomic rents
