The Liberal and Conservative housing plans aren’t so dissimilar.

There are similarities for sure between the Liberal and Conservative plans, but only the Liberal plan involves the federal government directly involved in the building of homes through the Build Canada Homes program. I see that as a significant difference that should eliminate some of the major friction that has prevented increasing supply.

The NDP are the ones proposing non-market housing solutions.

Indeed kudos to the NDP for addressing this directly.
