the government should construct and manage affordable housing
@9T2Z7Y53mos3MO
Yes, but the incentives should make sure that developers are only hiring quality workers and building quality homes
@9RC2QHK4mos4MO
Yes, and hold developers accountable for changes to their 'affordable housing plans' when they accept provincial subsidies.
@9WQY7BP4wks4W
No, it should expropriate private land and construct prefabricated housing directly

No, under the assumption the government has subsidized and built affordable houses already- first time home buyers only need government incentives because they are barred from the market
@9W4LHPN1mo1MO
No, and restrict the purchase price per unit for developers.
