Other right-wing accounts variously reacted by describing the move as Orwellian, lamenting the death of free speech and even contemplating leaving Canada for good.
Oh no. Not that. Please no.
<Tee hee!>

Not the quoted person but a quick research:
Apparently around 1.3 million homes were vacant in Canada (2021 data)
I couldn’t find anything more recent.
“[…]it is estimated that an average of 235,000 people in Canada experience one of the many types of homelessness each year.”

“Murtaza Haider is a professor of Real Estate Management at Ryerson University. Stephen Moranis is a real estate industry veteran.”
oh yes very unbiased people right here
Edit: Seriously though, after reading the article this doesn’t bust any myth at all. The only “source” cited is the census map and they don’t even take their time to transform that data into something that’s proving their point. That’s just a piece of opinion, it isn’t proving anything.
…Many of them ought to be considered vacant homes. So how close does that get us to 235,000?
See I didn’t respond because I knew this is exactly what you were going to do. It’s always the same debate pervert internet sophistry.
Nobody ever asks for a source because they’re intellectually curious, it’s always just “this right wing source disagrees with your facts”
Please refrain from bad faith behavior. I gave you the benefit of the doubt that you weren’t just a troll and you shattered it.
means you’re boring. Your childish insults are boring. Your banal political commentary is boring. Your sanctimonious, “That’s why I couldn’t be bothered to reply” while looking down your nose is boring.
