His plan was to raise taxes on people whose communities don’t increase their population by 5% each year and ban public transit from servicing commercial areas

⅔ of their plan sounds excellent, but any plan where "the" makes up a third of the words is missing some real substance.

Tying immigration to housing completions was his plan. Removing gst on housing was originally his idea. There was rezoning for density around transit and withholding federal funds from areas that don't build fast enough to encourage rezoning and reducing development taxes. Then there was selling off federal buildings and land to build housing. He also criticized the BoC for ignoring inflation and doing QE, because it rewarded asset holders, and he even said he would fire Tiff Macklem for ignoring his inflation mandate.

Now we have a housing minister who says housing is an investment, and Carney himself essentially repeated that in a round about way. Elbows up for homelessness.
