In case anyone still wants to somehow debate whether the Liberals will deliver affordable housing.
“Housing needs to retain its value,” Mr. Trudeau told The Globe and Mail’s City Space podcast. “It’s a huge part of people’s potential for retirement and future nest egg.”
It shouldnt be an investment but it should still have value. As in it shouldn’t be commoditized but should still be a way to “store” wealth.
It depends on your definition of “storage”. Like I said, I bought because I didn’t want to give money to a landlord for the rest of my life. The best-case outcome in my mind was breaking even when it comes time to sell. Any more than that necessarily increases housing costs for every subsequent generation.
