Ghost town 👻 — Housing Affordability Task Force wants to build more houses. BMOs calling some employees back into the office. And the maple syrup industry is booming.

A Housing Affordability Task Force convened by the Ontario government says 1.5 million new homes must be built in the province over the next 10 years in order to make housing affordable again. Toronto’s Financial District is starting to look less like a ghost town as some Bay Street bankers start heading back to the office this week. There’s a thriving economy out there for maple syrup — and New Brunswick producers want a bigger piece of it. ** Celebrating something?
