"Carney said $13 billion is earmarked for the new agency, which will help fund the construction of 4,000 modular homes on an initial six sites across the country — with capacity to scale up to 45,000."
I presume that's 45,000 deeply affordable units per year. Not enough, but not bad.
Update:
Stuck at $280/$1341 as of 8/28

Request for support: Looking for a home in Rotterdam! 🛏️
I will be studying here (at @xpub) for the next two years, but I found nothing after five months of searches.
I am privileged enough to have many friends and couches where to crush, but I am extremely tired and frustrated because I don’t have any stable nor long-term housing. 😩
(If necessary, I am considering also Delft and Den Haag)
Here’s my introduction. Could you help me spread the word? 🌻

Have you heard of the 3-30-300 🌳 rule?
Everyone should be able to:
🌲 See at least 3 trees from their home
🌳 Have 30% tree canopy cover in their neighbourhood
🍃 Live within 300 metres of a high-quality green space
Trees help us cool down our towns in the summer, improve air quality and regulate the water cycle.
That’s why The EU Biodiversity Strategy commits to planting at least 3 billion additional trees in the EU by 2030.

Not happening in Melbourne Australia now that permits to build 10-20 storey highrises are being given out like smarties to overseas developers.
Concrete is clearly the most valuable commodity.

Please don't call the cops on homeless folks, who you may see/run into at some parks, if they're not bothering anyone at all & are trying to keep to themselves. I've met several different homeless folks all around this large urban park & never felt scared around them. I sometimes bring them free foods & first aid supplies.
We desperately need more social & transitional supportive housing in #VictoriaBC. All municipalities should be working on this - together. This is a shared social responsibility & it crosses every municipal border. Demonizing & dehumanizing homeless folks hasn't helped at all - it is also very unkind & lacking of humanity.

Trump regime's move to send the homeless et al to concentration camps is right out of the Nazi playbook.
Journalists who maintain "neutrality" in the face of fascism are helping to normalize this. They'll regret their inaction when they're among the imprisoned (or worse).
The visibility of homeless people on street corners, begging for food and housing, is an obvious sign that our economy is failing. I've seen a large increase in the number of people begging at intersections in my suburbs far outside of Chicago, steadily increasing since Covid lockdowns ended.
Dictators need to hide the homeless in order to hide their economic failures. (Also, without an address, the homeless can't vote, making them easier targets.)
Republicans have always preferred the more expensive "prisons and insane asylums" response to #homelessness , rather than the less-expensive and proven #HousingFirst solutions.
Much of this current White House statement on the subject tries to forestall and negate #HousingFirst discussions by demonizing the homeless and portraying them all as either insane or addicts, rather than just signs of an economy that is failing to meet the basic needs of millions of its citizens.
🏠 Housing is a right, not a privilege.
Yet affordable, quality homes are out of reach for too many across Europe - especially young people, families, and vulnerable groups.
The EU is acting with its Affordable Housing Plan: tackling structural barriers, boosting supply, and unlocking investment.
️🗣️ Have your say.
A public consultation is open until 17 October.

Have your say ? 🤔
I'll start right here:
The @EUCommission together with other #EU regulations regarding #subsidies is forbiding #communities to invest in #PublicHousing & is in #neoliberal fashion #DeRegulating the #HousingMarket which has been and is THE MAIN DRIVER of our European #HousingCrisis.
You took affordable housing away from us! (Long ago.)
It must feel so satisfying for you people to mock us now over this.
Cynical and evil.
