Ontario's new housing plan: construction targets, density and development

from This Matters Hosted by Toronto Star

Guest: Robert Benzie, Queen's Park bureau chief The Ontario government unveiled its massive new housing plan this week, with sweeping changes and housing targets for municipalities across the province, all to get to the goal of building 1.5 million homes in the next decade. Critics are already concerned about density, availability of tradespeople to build the homes, impacts on affordability and the environmental considerations, but also, without penalties for not hitting targets, how is the government going to actually make this happen? This episode was produced by Brian Bradley, Paulo Marques and Raju Mudhar. Audio source: CPAC
