#cdnpoli Carney's deeply affordable housing announcement.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-new-housing-agency-1.7632981

"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.

@span mayintoronto I'm deeply curious how the feds expect to begin construction in Toronto next year, given it took Tory's staff 5 years of navigating approvals until shovels hit the ground for HousingNow.

Perhaps with Downsview they might be able to? Though even Downsview has already been through a couple of rounds of consultations.
