🇨🇦 Population shrinking in Toronto and Vancouver, yet Ottawa still floods the market

Here is the absurdity: parts of Canada’s two most expensive cities are actually losing population, and the approved elite response is still more densification, more upzoning, more stacking people like inventory. As reported, pockets of Toronto and Vancouver are hollowing out even while the country is lectured nonstop about unstoppable growth. Translation: the crisis was never just housing supply. It was a regime decision to import demand at warp speed while pretending concrete alone could outrun policy madness.

Trudeau’s Canada turned housing into a national shell game. Flood the country with newcomers, choke infrastructure, then blame zoning, neighbourhoods, and anyone who still thinks a nation should plan around citizens instead of global labour flows. Now the same managerial class wants Canadians to applaud micro-units and vertical overcrowding as sophisticated urbanism. No thanks. A sovereign country would match immigration to housing, wages, transit, and social cohesion. Our ruling class chose the Century Initiative playbook instead, and now acts shocked that even shrinking neighbourhoods feel unaffordable.
