Exactly. The solution to the housing problem is not sprawling detached homes, plazas, and traffic jams for as long as the eye can see. Rather than make the hard choices and enforcing density in the GTA, he gave a bunch of land to his buddy big developers. But since this is Ontario and the political opposition is weak I'm sure next to nothing will come of this.
