No surprise to see Stan Cho get a promotion, as he appears to be a rising star in the party.
Calandra has always seemed like a bit of a dud, imho.
The specific mandate of "attainable housing and modular homes" is curious and it remains to be seen what it means. The concept of a 'modular home' can mean different things to different people. To some, it means trailers/mobile homes, usually plunked on leased land; to others, what I would call 'engineered homes', that are built on jigs indoors and shipped in blocks to the site (think Royal Homes). It almost sounds like they want to further dink around with zoning rules and possibly building standards.
I don't know how to interpret the movement of Mulroney to TB. Much like Freeland's recent move at the federal level, is it a promotion or demotion?

You're right. Too much heat.Freeland didn't move; I assume you mean Anand.
“Let me give you a promise. We’re going to make sure that we’re going to donate land. We’re going to work with our municipalities. We’re going to offer a 1,600-square-foot home, with a basement that’s finished that you can rent out or have family there. You’re going to have a backyard with a fence. You’re going to have a paved driveway – under $500,000,” Mr. Ford told cheering supporters.
Such a plan would require a large discount in today’s market, or extensive subsidies. The average price of a home in the Greater Toronto Area last month was $1.08-million, according to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board.
But Doug, what if i don’t want a white picket fence and a basement tenant and to live who knows where this might even be possible?
I don't know if he's just grabbing the house prices out of his hat, or is he planning to subsidize his builder buddies with taxpayers money? After all he has plenty unspent money in the koffers for such things as: healthcare and education etc. The prices he is quoting are unrealistic given the land these house are going to stand on is probably 25.000 or more at market rate.Doug Ford trying to change the channel. He's promising $500k detached homes with fenced back yards, driveways, and finished basements.

How are these going to be allocated? Do I get one if I buy a ticket to Doug's fundraiser?
We don't need gimmicks. We need to streamline the creation of new housing supply.
