Show Notes

Ottawa and B.C. just unveiled a plan touching 2,200+ vacant condos, and the headline says taxpayers are now the buyer of last resort. Nick and Dan break down what was actually announced, billions in infrastructure, development-charge cuts, and a condo-conversion plan whose financing details won't drop until fall, and ask the question that matters: is public money buying real value, or rescuing a condo sector that overbuilt for investors? Smart housing policy or a bailout in disguise? It comes down to who takes the loss.
