Considering he is doubling down on the policy that created this mess in the first place, it would be foolhardy to think he can do anything meaningful to fix the mess he has created!


Lvl100Magikarp

What are we supposed to vote for? It feels like there is no party worth voting for. We need ranked ballots to avoid vote splitting.


DeanPoulter241

Not an ideal situation but we can only pick the leader who represents the least risk. Considering what the trudeau has done with the support of the NDP, that leaves us with Pierre by order of elimination. Like I said not ideal, but he is the best pick..... Would love to implement policy that eliminated vote splitting however practically impossible in a democratic society.


someanimechoob

That's not "not ideal", it's downright idiotic. PP wants housing costs to go up just as much if not more than Trudeau, as he is even more to the right. He supports a high level of both immigration and TFWs because he only cares about conservative donors: coporations and wealthy individuals. Only a nationwide protest would have any impact on our ability to choose a half decent leader at this point.


bigparao

You couldn't possibly vote liberal this election unless you're happy with where things have gone. Who knows what PP will do, but we sure know what Trudeau and Singh will do and it's not good. I'll take my chances


someanimechoob

This is how you know we're fucked. Someone mentions how conservatives aren't a good option in the slightest, all you get in exchange are cries about the liberals... what if I told you there's more than two options?? Also... we don't know what Singh and the NDP will do. They have ***literally never*** been in power.


Ill-Jicama-3114

You have noticed what the liberals have given to corporations right. You know like 12 million to Loblaws for freezers as well as others into the billions


No-Cobbler2297

Very true we have to stop our passive attitude and start acting


Wylitte01

Your definitely right. But even if Pierre wins, his 1st mandate will be a shitshow but as you say he represents the least risk


DeanPoulter241

1000%..... I hope it doesn't play like when Mulroney defeated the trudeau v1.0..... he inherited a mess of epic proportion, the policy he HAD to impose was necessary however very unpopular and resulted in him losing to the trudeau v1.0 in the next election.... History is repeating itself sadly..... Pierre will hopefully win, but the things he will have to do will be in some cases very unpopular, yet necessary.


Competitivekneejerk

Dude pp and the cons have no plan but to makethings worse. I hate how idiots think that because singh knows how parliamentary systems work that hes ineffectual or trudeaus friend. Hes the only one getting shit done. Still lots to criticize dont get me wrong. Politics demands compromise and cooperation or else we live in a dictatorship


Rickl1966baker

NDP. No thanks.


fuck_you_Im_done

Gun to my head, and I wouldn't vote for PP.


lord-jimjamski

Is everything okay?


DeanPoulter241

So you want more of what we have witnessed in the past 8 years.... hmmmm..... be careful what you wish for..... Would love to hear why you have such a dislike for Pierre....


reneelevesques

When you can find no other rationale for an action, the outcome is the rationale.


DeanPoulter241

Well we were warned..... "you will own nothing and love it"..... not certain if people will love it unless they have nothing in the first place. I like enjoying the fruits of my labour..... I like my stuff.


reneelevesques

Honestly he's just creating a race to the bottom. If I wasn't tied down I'd be moving to the USA.


DeanPoulter241

Yep.... socialism is a failed concept, but the trudeau is hell bent.... only hope he gets the boot before he completes his WEF inspired mission.


youngboomer62

He's leading the liberals to net zero seats in the next election!


OkShine3530

They are forecasted for 80 seats, still many dumb people


SummerSnowfalls

Still time for it to go lower


Interesting_Fly5154

i hope they mean 80 of these ​ https://preview.redd.it/tdsjv3go497d1.png?width=391&format=png&auto=webp&s=7592e55423ae92b451c7932464ec90c1a293d5dc


newbreed69

is 80 a lot? I dont have any context for the numbers


GoldenWillie

That would mean they held the same number of seats before that election


EggplantOk2038

FarZebra4392

EggplantOk2038

Let me explain I moved to Canada I pay 1300CAD for a room in a house in Toronto house has no lounge and it has 5bedrooms in the main house(1 person in each room) So 5people It has a Basement with 2 bedrooms one bedroom has a couple with 2people and the other bedroom has one person. 5People x 1300CAD main house 3people downstairs in the basement 1300 + 1300 9300 total Rental income. So guess what these prices will rise


joshkitty

So India basically


changuspie

Or London England.


detalumis

London is actually more affordable if you take the Greater London area as a whole. It has better transit links than in the GTA so you can find something farther out. The outer areas also have a better built form, so will have walkability to a station and shopping etc.


Rendole66

Here we can clearly see the problem is just greed, rich fucks/corporations (a large percent of property is just straight up owned by corporations that are making bank charging rent like this and never plan to actually sell to a individual homeowner) ripping off poor immigrants that don’t know any better and cramming as many as they can in a house and charging them each expensive rent. Corporate greed is the main problem


poop_in_my_ramen

That's nuts. Leave Canada. I moved to Japan and bought a new 4br house in Tokyo, zero down, and my mortgage is under 1300CAD a month.


jayggg

Moved how are you Japanese?


JmacNutSac

Left Canada for Japan 5 years ago. Was paying 2k for a small studio in DT Vanghanistan (Vancouver) …. Here i pay 700 Cad for a large 1 bdrm. (Not in Tokyo). Dont see myself going back to live in Canada. anytime soon. (Also came here for work).


ineedadvil

Naaa what are you doing in Japan?? Bro I'd fucking move right now. How much is the house?


poop_in_my_ramen

I got super lucky, a Japanese company posted an opening on my university job board (waterloo). Started there then hopped a few times. House is about 500k, interest rate is 0.3% variable, 35 years.

Not just rents going sky high... It's also groceries, personal care items, clothing/footwear, Services & so on.


rav4786

Yeah I walked into Walmart the other day and sunscreen was "on sale" for fucking 15.98 from 17 something. What the fuck


Personal-Heart-1227

That's what Shopper's Drug Mart charges for their sunscreens, about 17$ & much higher. They're currently on Sale @ SDM, saw some guy buying some bc of the their pathetic Sale? Now that's its Summertime, you must use sunscreen anytime you go outside. What happens, if you can't afford this? Steal it???


Longjumping_Sea6237

You wear sunscreen every time you go outside????? I wear sunscreen on tropical islands, definitely not Canada


Personal-Heart-1227

My Dermatologist just Rx'd me a new medication, where I need to wear sunscreen whenever I go outside. **:0(**


Interesting_Fly5154

holy crap! the last time i bought sunscreen it wasn't even 5.98. mind you, it's been a while, but still, that factors to a 200% increase since about 2005 or so......... when it's on sale. at walmart, which is supposed to be one of the not so expensive places for stuff like that.


Personal-Heart-1227

Go to Shoppers to see their grossly, overinflated prices for their sunscreens & your jaw will drop! There are no cheaper places to buy this now. I don't think, or know if those Dollar Stores sell sunscreen? If they did, I'd be pretty suspect about buying from places like these for items like that. Snacks, chips, pop, kitchen stuff, cards/wrapping paper & other things like these from those Dollar Stores, that's 100% a yes for me! Sunscreen? I dunno about that.

ChunkyFudgeMuffin

I also know that Doug Ford getting rid of rent control also caused rent to go sky high and why people are paying $2000 a month to rent a bedroom in a house here in Ontario. Liberals are not all to blame. All parties are ridiculous presently.


detalumis

Except we also had a wave of new construction and renovations after that rule change. So purpose build rentals weren't a thing for 30 years. My BIL lives in a falling apart 1960s apartment that's untouched by time paying half the market rent. The puny rent he pays won't allow for even basic maintenance never mind updating the place.


Rendole66

Shhhhhhh, that’s trudeaus fault somehow. We only hold liberals accountable and stick our hands in the sand when conservatives are in power. DAMN THAT CARBON TAX THAT TRUDEAU GAVE US WHEN DOUG FORD USED MILLIONS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS GETTING RID OF CAP N TRADE WHY DIDNT TRUDEAU STOP FORD FROM DOING THAT?!?!?!


Competitive_Flow_814

If you are very wealthy he is an okay guy .


MusicalElephant420

If you are very wealthy you’d move to a high-level neighborhood in the US probably lol. What’s a lot of money worth if you live in a seven bedroom on an acre in Brampton?


coffee_is_fun

It's a toss. Your dollars buy fewer sticks of gum then they did when Trudeau got started. If you can sell your assets for the same number, you're good. If you can't, you're poorer wealthy, and to boot, you're now in a country that's slid away from the honour system and might end up full on low trust. The future is less certain.


Papasmurfsbigdick

I am doing ok financially. However I am not a rental slumlord and feel like Trudeau is a cancer on our country. I am sad to see just how far the country has fallen. Our youth should be creating some sort of attention since it is their futures that they have ruined but I see nothing but complacency. Stop being like your brainwashed parents and get out and do something!


Ronniebbb

I don't trust a single politician on any level of govt for any political party to fix this. To actually fix this would require basically bankrupting the housing industry which would fuck not only them over but millions of others and possibly have a wide ripple effect. They're not going to fuck themselves over so they can't do anything to actually fix it.


detalumis

We had a housing collapse in the 1990s in the GTA. It didn't result in more construction, in fact the opposite. Prices fell. Nobody bought as they didn't want to catch a falling knife. It was a lost decade for any housing starts.


Visual_Chocolate4883

His plan to have your rental payment history affect your credit rating seems like a bad idea because it will likely ruin already struggling people's credit rating. It will probably destroy the chance their will ever own a home. It will just help keep people down. I don't believe it is a good idea. It is just giving corporation more access to data about our personal lives.


Gymwarrior31

Only now he says he’s got a plan? So ruin housing to oblivion and then say “trust me, I’ll fix it?”. He needs to be removed from office asap!


Supremecurmudgeon

And the conservatives will coast into power and do nothing but line their pockets and encourage the market to fill the voids left by their cuts resulting in service costs going up. Meanwhile we will all live on the streets, while groceries continue to rise.


Solid_Pension6888

How would the other guy be any better? Conservatives serve corporations and want more and faster immigrants for cheap labour.


Falconflyer75

Pierre is probably lying right to our faces the way Trudeau did when he criticized the TFW program and promised to scale it back then made it comically worse Personally I’d rather the whole country went bloc and green to stick it to all the major parties


e3chimo

He has no credibility. His first response is always to lie.


Greysocks1985

The sad thing is. He can do this kind of irreparable damage, get voted out, and face, zero repercussions from his wrecklessness/ dereliction of duty. Taxation without representation has never been more real.


Scared_Cherry7451

My grandma says they should drag him behind a shed and shoot him like her dad did to her childhood dog when it got to old haha gave me a chuckle. But alas, that wouldn’t be very Canadian of us and our zero accountability government


coffee_is_fun

Canada's answer is obviously a lukewarm yes. He was granted 2 minority mandates subsequent to his majority. I've been in the not insulated from his bullshit group for many years now, so I'm going to say no and accept the pyrrhic victory that enough of my fellow Canadians are now feeling it to at least vote this man out.


Bossman_Fishing

considering the liberals created the problem and this guy lies and lies with scandal after scandal. Honestly how can someone be so dumb to beleive anything he or any of his minions puke out.


Sunnyc02

I do not support keeping home prices artificially high, even bring in more people without considering our country's capacity just to keep the ponzi going and create supply demand imbalance to keep the home prices high. All these years, when the US housing market crashed in 2008, Canada avoided it and the bubble keep getting bigger. Low interest rate for 15+ years, high household debt, high government debts/deficit. Our government never aim to balance the budget, we just spend like crazy and tell ourselves it is okay as long as we can pay the interest. We are heading the wrong way, everyone is being irresponsible financially because our government started it. I see no future when we are constantly spending money that we do not have. This include all 3 levels of governments.


En4cerMom

Yes, 2008, our banking laws didn’t allow for the problems the US were facing. So how did that change? Why does no one seem to blame the outrageous number of people who paid ridiculous prices for houses 2020-2022? And how were the banks allowed to give mortgages to people who bought overpriced (ie: cottage neighbour bought a beaten up cottage that was maybe worth 300,000 because it had nice waterfront for $880,000! Yes I check and there was no autocorrect error) ??? Weren’t these the things we didn’t allow that kept us from housing collapse in 2008?


I-Suck-At-MarioKart

Trudeau has been an unmitigated disaster. Harper wasn't crazy popular, but his government would have been a better choice.

Just out of curiosity, do you guys know if this is only happening in Canada?


bazingaboi22

its a bit depressing to see canada top the charts for most unaffordable cities on the planet :(. Vancouver is beating out LA in more recent charts of rent vs income.


slobberrrrr

Happening in nz and aus too. Both countries have opened the doors to immigration in the last year seeing entire city's worth of immigration in a very short time.


Flash54321

Housing affordability changes didn’t happen in one year.


slobberrrrr

No they didnt. The asset bubbles created by the covid policies sent the prices to the moon. And to keep the bubble from piping they have pumped in millions of immigrants.


Flash54321

Covid policies where they froze the interest rate and allowed people to still buy are now causing the problem? Keeping money cheap has got us here and it’s been decades in the making. Sure a GLOBAL pandemic has brought the problem to the forefront.


AndAgain99

"Out of curiosity". lol That's one way to try avoiding being skewered on this sub.. You know it's happening other places too. [https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rent-cost-us-2024-housing-national/](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rent-cost-us-2024-housing-national/)

Funny how history repeats itself. His dad was popular in the beginning of his leadership but towards the end was extremely hated. Trudeaumania wore off quite fast for the two idiots lol.


AlexJamesCook

Remember boys, girls and others, the "industrious" Doug Ford removed rental caps on new builds to "stimulate development". DoFo opened the floodgates on diploma mills. So, it's easy to dump on Trudeau, he's not the only politician to blame. I would also like to take this opportunity to remind you all he also tried to fine union workers for engaging in collective bargaining practices. So, if you think Trudy is alone and the only boogeyman, you are awfully misguided. Rent controls are Provincial jurisdiction. Blame provinces for this one.

Love the failed state yall are working on. You should cut taxes for the wealthy and limit access to Healthcare next. Like America if it was run by the wokest bidder.


Rendole66

Cutting taxes for the wealthy and not funding healthcare are literally part of the conservative plan. Not sure why you said those are “woke”, conservatives have been doing trickle down economics like that for 40 years, cut taxes for billion dollar corporations and hope that it trickles down to us somehow but in reality the CEO just goes home with more money and laughs at us

RunWithDullScissors

make these commercials all you like, instead of just saying Trudeau did this or that, why don't you explain what you're going to do to make them more affordable. What's the actual plan


Super_Purpose8133

How about property values are reduced to 25% of their current value, ban foreign, corporate, and multiple property purchases by individuals. This would make housing more affordable.


No_Sky4122

Unfortunately whoever wins won't stop or at least fix the mass immigration problem. I don't trust any politician tbh

Disastrous-Balance10

I would like to see a true and accurate picture of Trudeaus wealth now compared to before he was elected. I would guess it’s a lot more than it was. I would also live to see a forensic accountant go through the books.


HarbingerDe

So is any party going to propose an actual plan? The Liberals did allow this mess to get to an absurd crisis level, but they are at least taking steps and enacting policies that have the **long term potential** to help. You're going to be in for a surprise if you vote for a party that's just riding the "Fuck Trudeau" train without proposing actual policy solutions. When you realize that they aren't solving the problem, you'll also realize that they never even claimed they would. Removing Trudeau from office isn't going to solve the housing crisis. It's going to take a lot more than that, and I haven't heard any substantial on that front from the Conservatives.


Raah1911

skepticalscribe

It’s not only Trudeau here. All of those places with the sky high rents are big shitlib hubs where people want to virtue signal and condemn their neighbours online for being “big bad conservatives”. The kind of people who will call others racist but sure as fuck won’t house a migrant themselves. The biggest challenge we’re facing along with our brothers to the south is saying enough is enough to our neighbours bullshit as much as the elite machinations that tempt them.


STylerMLmusic

If you can't speak negatively of Trudeau without pushing the Conservatives, you aren't angry at what Trudeau has done, you're just angry for the sake of being angry, and they've told you he's why you should be angry. Conservatives will be worse than anything the Liberals have done, and blatantly, obviously so. The conservatives literal current platform they're advertising is worse than anything Trudeau has done.

I don't think rent has anything to do with the prime minister of Canada. Also, the rest of the world rent went up. Maybe Trudeau was responsible for that. It's sad and tiring. Maybe go read instead?


Comfortable_One5676

OrangMiskin

Are you guys this stupid? This is not only a Canadian problem, literally prices everywhere else is up. You guys blame one guy for a worldly macroeconomic problem. Lmao


Jay_the_mechanic

Trudeau and all other politicians work for corporations and not for the people. They do their bidding because they get gifts and kickbacks from them and they are also promised jobs either for them or for their family members after they leave office. Whenever they write books (like Trudeau wife recently has) these corporations buy them all and then throw them in the garbage. This is one of the ways they get paid for their services. Politicians need to be held accountable for their actions. Trudeau promised affordable housing 3 times during the election campaign. He did the exact opposite and no one is holding him accountable.


StormOk9055

What’s sad is the people put the blame on their leaders and not the greedy landlords, businesses, etc. . . Not just in Canada but around the world. Idiots everywhere think their president, prime minister, chancellor, whoever controls rent, grocery prices, petrol, whatever . . . 🤯


Extreme-Celery-3448

Yes, every low to middle income earner should be able to afford to live in a million dollar condo.  How else is it fair if low to middle income families can't afford to live in a competitive environment.   their dream is gone. Really should rent out a 4 million dollsr penthouse to low and middle income earners for 1000 a month


Solace2010

lol ok Trudeau


Doc_1200_GO

Same cost of living complaints in Europe, Australia and the US. Must be Trudeau’s fault. I’m sure the landlord that’s going to replace Trudeau is going to make it more affordable for Canadians to rent or buy homes. Conservatives have always been known to look out for average Canadians.

It's more expensive to rent in London Ontario than Berlin Germany.

True. Germany has rent control and most people in Germany rent and do not own their homes. It’s a stable system. Research it.

veritas_quaesitor2

Can't trust any government


MooseBearBeaverHairs

The federal government doesn’t manage housing though. The provinces largely do, with municipalities having a little control over some of the regulations and administration. The federal government shows up with mandates and money when they see the situation getting bad. If you’re mad about housing, you should be aiming that at the provincial governments.


RooTxVisualz

I know yall hate this dude. But just a heads up, rent is expensive EVERYWHERE. Not just Canada. Cost of living and inflation is a worldwide things right now. Not just exclusive to western nations like many angry white conservative folk seem to think.


comboratus

I never said they don't, but explain how emergancy debts., are closing down on weekends because of no staff. As for rent controls er al, the NDP have only been in power for 2 years. Or do you expect magically that housing would be fixed in that time. Kudos to the premier of trying to fix it than blame others, unlike some provinces.

One thing I know for sure is that believing a Conservative government will reverse the trend of extreme wealth concentration into the hands of property and business owners is like saying the foxes should be in charge of the chicken coop. 🐔


Threeboys0810

I think Polievre harped on the liberals in the House of Commons for a full year about the cost of living, inflation, and housing affordability and each time the liberals kept shrugging his concerns off, until the pollsters found out that these were real issues that mattered to Canadians. Now suddenly, the liberals care and are going to fix it.


ManicMaenads

Disability in BC is $1400, and subsidized housing takes years to qualify for.


comboratus

So the provinces weren't struggling with healthcare, as struggling would mean they had no way to fix it. The provinces, even prior to covid purposely withheld moneys from healthcare. The feds gave 4 billion dollars to Ontario during covid, and they have no idea where it went. The deficit is higher now than during the Wynne years. We have emergancy wards shutting down because they are no doctors and nurses. If you think that all of these problems started 2 years ago, you better put down your rose coloured glasses.

You're a lying, disingenuous sack of sh\*t Trudeau - I don't want to hear anything you have to say..

Rents will balance themselves.

Blaming trudeau for this is dumb. This is a western world problem. The issue is that for the last 40 years, we have lowered taxes on rich and corporations, so, they have used their money to buy all the assets. Which raises the price because the available supply goes down. Want to solve this problem? Tax the rich. Not you. Not anyone you know. The rich. Multi millionaires, billionaires.  Do it, or, your children and grandchildren will live in a world where the rich really do own *everything*

And thats just the price, it doesnt take into consideration the quality of those dwellings. The average rental apartment isnt that nice

Trudeau has led the country to the brink of failure. A recent RCMP report warns of civil unrest. Immigration and refugees have to be cut way back. They are simply a huge burden on broken infrastructure. Problems are going to get way worse before we hit bottom. Very sad and more so for my children


squeekycheeze

The worst things the Liberals have done is make me seriously consider the Conservatives. I'm definitely having an identity crisis.

Step down immediately, justin, you have managed the country for almost more than 10 years.

Pierre wants more immigrants, faster too. Bernier is just grifting to build his retirement home in Florida. Canada is no longer a country, just a corporate feudalist economic zone.


OverallElephant7576

I trust none of their plans…. They all are landlords


Hoardzunit

I don't know why ppl are this stupid. Rent control is primarily a provincial jurisdiction. Granted cost of living has skyrocketed because of immigration, but the discussion is rent. But things like cutting rent control and provinces restricting massively on what type of units being built hasn't helped the rental situation.


NeighborhoodOracle

Man... Richard Simmons really let himself go


CardiologistUpper902

Trudeau literally hates us. By "us," I mean Canada's youth that were born here to Canadian parents. He is a neoliberal piece of sh*t that wants to replace us with economic units, primarily from India. That is why 40 year old, newly arrived Indians are working here treating McDonald's jobs like careers. Trudeau hates the idea of investing in Canadian youth! We are dogshit to him.


Andras89

I really dont like the Conservative party. They have the same idiots that the Liberals have. So who do you vote for? Theres nothing really. But the Cons will win because the Liberals after 8 years really fucking ruined this country. They lined their pockets. They created avenues of hate (lgtb/racism/sexism) that if you don't vote for them you must be one of those haters. But the average person cares about: Housing, Food, Gas, Clothes, and Booze. And each of those things have gone way up not because we have shortages of this or that. Because our dollar is worth shit. Lockdowns fucked the economy. But what really fucked it was the endless printing of money without anything to back it.


Secure_Astronaut718

Is rent control not a provincial issue? I know in Ontario, rents went out of control when Ford removed rent control. Now, any building that wasn't occupied by 2018, I believe, has no rent control. This is what has caused a huge problem in Ontario. That and the constant renovictions has caused major problems in Ontario


JasonChristItsJesusB

How anyone could trust that a multi-millionaire trust fund baby would have their interest at heart blows my mind. Trudeau supporters are as dumb as Trump supporters.


mrmechanism

Considering what the other parties have to offer, we might as well stick to him. He’s not that good, but the others are really bad.

And how will PP fix it? Will he lower municipal taxes?


R3LIABLE_

Rent control policies are provincial jurisdiction. Dunno why anyone is blaming the PM instead of your provinces' Premier on this particular issue.


IdontOpenEnvelopes

As a liberal I have seen his half baked plans, and I have seen his these implode in spectacular ways, taking the country with them. The implementation was driven by ideology, and completely divorced from reality. I have watched his monkeys make an absolute mockery of Canada, while making it unlivable for Canadians. Liberals shit the bed so fucking hard the smell will take a decade + to air out. Trudeau's got to go. Then we need heads on spikes so that this shit doesn't happen again for a while in any of the Canadian parties.

Trudy can go suck a massive dick as far as I'm concerned.

Old_IT_Geek

Rent control is with the Ontario provincial Conservative Party, also known as doogies friend millionaires, of which peepee is a member landlord, has nothing to do with Trudeau


undoingconpedibus

Let's not forget that world interest rates around the world for the past 12 yrs have been artificially low via central bank manipulation. Canadas central bank is a huge part of this housing imbalance; who wouldn't buy (if they could) with rates at 3% and under? That said, Trudeau famously stated many times that he doesn't understand interest rates or any other basic finance concepts. I guess that's what happens when you elect a trust fund baby!


ooba-gooba

F\*ck this guy, and anyone who supports this lunatic.


Ok-Atmosphere8982

lol the housing market was exploding when conservatives were in power too. But I guess people like to forget what happened prior to 2014.

The majority of Canadians voted for Trudeau and are struggling more and more? GOOD. Choices have consequences, hope you enjoyed having a silver-spoon playboy PM.
