I assume you’re Canadian. This is a problem across North America. Almost nowhere is safe now.

The construction industry scaled way back in 2008, and it never really scaled back up in North America. We’re not building enough to keep pace with population growth and to replace aging homes.

We need to build, not blame each other.

Yeap, and yet we are not building anything that is not large semi or detached homes. Here there is no subsidies (current or planed) for building apartments we desperately need and instead our providential government blames municipalities for "red tape" causing issues with builders. You can talk to builders, they don't want to manage buildings and they build what makes them money, its not rocket science.
