    So you have no idea what I’m actually talking about.

    Just because you live in a small town where rent is affordable, doesn’t mean that the majority of rest of Canada’s population, which lives mostly in the cities, have it easy like you.

    Go ahead and look at the apartment listings in Montreal and find a reasonably apartment and come up with a budget for a family with two kids on an income of 100k/year that can afford rent, groceries, utilities, and some leisure time. Go ahead.

      Canada has a fuckload of land, there’s no reason for MST of the population to cram into tiny spaces.

          Yes, because nobody in a rural area has a job.

          It’s almost like, if we build communities, they’ll need services and people to provide those services.

          But no, that’s crazy, let’s just all go live in the cities and see what’s there.
