4:35 Jason Nixon is completely misleading in this statement. The housing crisis is caused by the greed of developers looking to gouch people as much as possible. When housing is built it is the developers who line their pockets and then charge rental prices and fees that few can afford. It is a complete scapegoat 4:55 is another excuse in Inflation matters. The government did cause the inflation matters. Most of the inflation is companies gouching and getting away with it.
The housing crisis is caused by mass immigration far above the supply of housing available. 100% caused by Federal policy. A policy they were warned would caused this exact issue.
"The government did cause the inflation matters". I'm glad that we can agree on how bad Trudeau's government's policies have been. Back in the day when Chrétien was elected, no one was afraid that our country could survive. It was a self-steering ship. But Justin has gone above amd beyond to veer this country down a dangerous course.
@@Matthew-h6e The government doesn't set prices for the sale of good and services. Companies do. A lot of these companies were getting away with murder charging what they can charge.

Baaaaaa hahahahahahahaha........HE is responsible for housing in Alberta, soooo where is it?? HE has forced the hand of the PM to completely bypass the province and work with municipalities to get housing built.....why do you think that is? Housing is the responsibility of the Provinces, and housing starts are WAAAAYYYYY down....how come?
@@vampfashionssure why he is balem fed not funding for AB? Just use your surplus to take care the house and health care. But smith says no we will going to save the money.
Here is an idea, radical idea: Slow immigration until 1) You fix education (20 students per class cap) 2) You fix healthcare (wait times are reasonable) 3) You fix housing (housing = around 30% of take home pay) Fix Canada first.... then fix the world.
Imagine the disdain we will feel from the Feds when AB starts regrowing the Heritage Fund up to $450 Billion by 2050 as our Premier just announced. That will put a piddling $175 million in perspective.
And on the same day, Edmonton council unanimously voted to destroy an entire neighbourhood of affordable housing to please a developer that is in the midst of building overpriced homes in the same place. CBC, any questions about that?
Protecting kids from degenerates isn't trivial to normal functioning adults. You obviously are with the moe.lesters...and should be on the N.S.O. list.
Alberta will never be happy. Here's tens of millions of dollars to build tax free houses....they don't even show up and then complain they want more. Give me a break
BC and Ontario were inundated with ads to move there. Many of my coworkers who can work remote in their 6 figure jobs did. I know of at least 4 Ontarians that bought properties to rent there. I thought Alberta was open for business?
Albertas housing is getting expensive because they advertised to ppl living in Ontario to move there. Stop blaming everyone else for what the province caused
No, he's likely protecting the interests of mega-corporations that have a huge hold on housing "fleets" of rentals etc. Jacking up rental housing prices and taking away opportunities for Canadians to own their first homes. Building more homes is not necessarily the issue per se. Who's interests is this "PM" protecting. Hm... let me think.
The only way the housing crisis can be fixed is if the rate of new houses being built outpaces the growth of the population. The data tells us the rate of new housing completions for Canada is around 200k - 300k per year. Given our housing deficit currently sits at around 4.4 million homes that means it would take us 14 years of 0 population growth in order to be at an equilibrium. You heard that right, we would have to pause all immigration (or let in just enough to balance births - deaths) for over 14 years to reach a healthy housing market. Even if we somehow increased the rate of housing builds to 600k per year, that's still means 7 years of 0 population growth in order to catch up. The federal government is responsible for this mess because they enabled mass immigration at unprecedented levels adding fuel to the fire of the housing crisis. Canadians voted for him to fix these issues, not to make them worse. Shame on you for lying by omission.
@@oldmanlearningguitar446No, the beauty of using housing builds is that we don't have to consider the variable number of people living in each house. The country is short 4.4 million homes according to the Canadian Human Rights Commission, and we can build 300k year. That's over 14 years to build 4.4 million homes. I assume they came to that number using stats Canada's figure of 2.5 for the average number of people per household. It's safe to assume the housing needs of the population does not change if the population stays the same. In real world scenario these totals would be re-evaluated on yearly or even monthly basis to account for changes in the age of population, and behavior.
@@Bozey Actually the Canadian Human Rights Commission said we were short 4.4 million “affordable” homes not that we were short 4.4 million actual homes. Big difference. If we were short 4.4 million actual homes at 2.5 people per home then 11 million people out of Canada’s 40 million would be currently homeless with only 29 million people in Canada having a home. That’s obviously not true.
@@oldmanlearningguitar446 Personally I would like homes to be affordable. Having a glut of unaffordable property that people can't afford doesn't help much.
Where do you propose getting wood for all the homes? Canadas forests lost 3 million square km. of trees by forest fires in 2023. All the calculations and aspirations wont grow harvestable trees any time soon.Think seriously bout that.@@Bozey
The minister is disappointed with the federal govt because they showed up with barely a heads up, they blasted Alberta for not wanting to work on housing with the federal govt when the Alberta govt has been trying for at least a year (crickets from Ottawa), and that while they finally have decided to invest some money into housing, when taking into account per capita spending, they are short 100 million dollars when compared to what they are giving BC and Quebec. Alberta is the fastest growing province because of its housing affordability (unaffordabity crisis majority caused by the Trudeau govt), yet they are only half assing the financial assistance. Edmonton has one of if not the most progressive zoning laws in North America now, and Alberta has always been pretty good with keeping up with supply of housing relative to population size. The past 1-2 years have been crazy explosive in population and we are struggling to keep up. The PM needs to be the bigger person and put aside squabbles on other issues and do what’s best for Canadians, stop treating Canadians in Alberta like we are some foreign country. Treat the provinces equally.
So disconnected it's frightening. The crisis is not about detached homes middle class. The crisis is about housing 9 million people in appartments because folks cant afford a house. So to repeat.myself again like in 2015, each province need to build government funded appartment complexes(housing projects) to house 9 million people. All units with 3 appliances. Coin laundry machines in common area of each floor. Rents capped at $1000 per month maximum.
there wouldn't be a crisis if he didn't allow the open borders so millions could flood in, exasberating upsetting the housing issue. Feds caused the issue in the first place.
Un-needed? Really? Our population isn't having enough kids to replace itself and it's dropping like in almost every western nation. The large baby boomer population is going to be dieing off soon. In order to at least maintain the countries population (growth would be more important though), it needs immigrants. Less population means less tax revenue which leads to less services, issues with social security and on and on and on.
HAS ALBERTA END ZONING ? have they and single family zonning and increase density. Alberta just complains . Alberta has never care to actually do anything new or innovative, Bc Ontario and other provinces have done what needs to be done yet Alberta is ALWAYS complaining they refused to work with the rest of Canada they're looking just as foolish as Quebec.

Would happily settle for just not taking from us in the first place. There’s no federal money ever coming back to Alberta that didn’t originate in Alberta. Same for all the “individual tax rebates and incentives” bs. They take it from you to maybe give back.
Trudeau went so hard at bc and with the premier there. He clearly doesn't want to work with Danielle Smith coz he knows she's right. He's a narcissist standing behind his lunatic climate minister. It doesn't matter that he can't put his ego aside and invite the province premier ,once he's kicked out of office for good Pierre poilievre will work with Danielle Smith,the greatest premier of Canada by far.
I will vote for Pierre Poilievre.
Liberal host - cant wait to be defunded and let them try and raise funds themselves
Once a crook always a crook. Doesn’t matter how nice his suit is.
There is no question that Northern BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba would be better off without Ottawa
That's sounding like the start of a really good country right there... lol
Actually most of Canada's problems originated east of Ottawa.
BYEEEEEEEE........of course we'll be tolling out the rail, and trans Canada highways that WE built!
@@chrishogan8125And we will be blockading those, and also closing the sovereign airspace above us. Have fun negotiating with USA for transit. That is of course assuming we don't just takeover the entire country.
@@chrishogan8125 With electric bulldozers and borrowed money? 😀
Trudeau needs to go… also what a liberal talking head of a journalist lol cbc should be defunded
How dare he ask the minister tough questions! How dare he do his job! 🙄
Power & politics nothing but a mouthpiece for Trudea. Cant wait till the cbc and justin castro are gone!
EXACTLY!!!
Its Trudeaus way or no way. God bless canada. So tired of this dumb pm and his miniters.
That reporter is such a joke, he needs to realize that we pay his salary which he ignores and instead he’s working for the Fiberals and their pathetic politics. Aw, it a waste of time even listening to political CBC reporters?
this interviewer is literally straight up defending trudeau entirely
Nothing less from corrupt paid off CBC liberal mouthpieces
Please please Danielle stop giving Ottawa equalization payments!
... that's... that's not how that works.
Jason Nixon, strong MPP. Nicely done Mr. Nixon.
Hi Did the same stunt in Regina this is not new
Is this same guy that laughed at taking away diabetic medication from albertans?
A ROLE TO PLAY hmmmmm frkng drama teacher
4:35 Jason Nixon is completely misleading in this statement. The housing crisis is caused by the greed of developers looking to gouch people as much as possible. When housing is built it is the developers who line their pockets and then charge rental prices and fees that few can afford. It is a complete scapegoat
4:55 is another excuse in Inflation matters. The government did cause the inflation matters. Most of the inflation is companies gouching and getting away with it.
The housing crisis is caused by mass immigration far above the supply of housing available. 100% caused by Federal policy. A policy they were warned would caused this exact issue.
"The government did cause the inflation matters". I'm glad that we can agree on how bad Trudeau's government's policies have been. Back in the day when Chrétien was elected, no one was afraid that our country could survive. It was a self-steering ship. But Justin has gone above amd beyond to veer this country down a dangerous course.
@@Matthew-h6e The government doesn't set prices for the sale of good and services. Companies do. A lot of these companies were getting away with murder charging what they can charge. The government never did anything to control those prices through any policy.
Conservative government won't be any better...
Housing crisis is due to mass immigration do a little research
@@Matthew-h6e Right, and which pandemic, and global supply shut down did ANY of the previous Prime Ministers have to deal with??
I'll wait...
Newfound respect for Jason. He handled that interview like a consummate professional.
Baaaaaa hahahahahahahaha........HE is responsible for housing in Alberta, soooo where is it?? HE has forced the hand of the PM to completely bypass the province and work with municipalities to get housing built.....why do you think that is? Housing is the responsibility of the Provinces, and housing starts are WAAAAYYYYY down....how come?
I concur
well get to the table and negotiate your needs? Making yourself available is part of the game, go to him if needed its really important.
We just announced a directive to balance budgets and save up $450 billion. We don't need anything from the federal government.
@@vampfashionssure why he is balem fed not funding for AB? Just use your surplus to take care the house and health care. But smith says no we will going to save the money.
Trudeau is spineless..... what an absolute embarrassment to Canadians
He’s been the pm for 8 years & now he wants to build houses. I think it’s a photo-op & empty promises
Remember how many trees he wanted to plant? How is that going?
Trudeau needs to stay out of Alberta
Here is an idea, radical idea: Slow immigration until
1) You fix education (20 students per class cap)
2) You fix healthcare (wait times are reasonable)
3) You fix housing (housing = around 30% of take home pay)
Fix Canada first.... then fix the world.
a real clean your room kind of radical idea. i like it
Expect more Distain from the Fed's.
We loath the Turdeau bloodline, as well .😎
Imagine the disdain we will feel from the Feds when AB starts regrowing the Heritage Fund up to $450 Billion by 2050 as our Premier just announced. That will put a piddling $175 million in perspective.
And on the same day, Edmonton council unanimously voted to destroy an entire neighbourhood of affordable housing to please a developer that is in the midst of building overpriced homes in the same place. CBC, any questions about that?
Alberta is more focused on wedge issues like LGBT youth than on housing and healthcare.
Not true at all
I know, we are back to being the embarrassing cousin again. Pity.
No that’s you’re BOI Turdeau .
Protecting kids from degenerates isn't trivial to normal functioning adults.
You obviously are with the moe.lesters...and should be on the N.S.O. list.
@@soulpowerfulyou are right. He’s also interested in funding 2 wars.
What trudeau says never the truth . Always believe the opposite and you be better informed.
I wouldn't even need to see the logo to know this was a CBC "reporter".
Listening to this guy defend the Liberals is just sickening, he's a bootlicker.
Trudeau must paid for his pool!
Alberta will never be happy. Here's tens of millions of dollars to build tax free houses....they don't even show up and then complain they want more. Give me a break
Short of $100 million for housing in Canada but has $3B for the Ukraine war. Ridiculous.
BC and Ontario were inundated with ads to move there. Many of my coworkers who can work remote in their 6 figure jobs did. I know of at least 4 Ontarians that bought properties to rent there. I thought Alberta was open for business?
CBC turn comments on all your videos.
Albertas housing is getting expensive because they advertised to ppl living in Ontario to move there. Stop blaming everyone else for what the province caused
No, he's likely protecting the interests of mega-corporations that have a huge hold on housing "fleets" of rentals etc. Jacking up rental housing prices and taking away opportunities for Canadians to own their first homes. Building more homes is not necessarily the issue per se. Who's interests is this "PM" protecting. Hm... let me think.
The only way the housing crisis can be fixed is if the rate of new houses being built outpaces the growth of the population. The data tells us the rate of new housing completions for Canada is around 200k - 300k per year. Given our housing deficit currently sits at around 4.4 million homes that means it would take us 14 years of 0 population growth in order to be at an equilibrium. You heard that right, we would have to pause all immigration (or let in just enough to balance births - deaths) for over 14 years to reach a healthy housing market. Even if we somehow increased the rate of housing builds to 600k per year, that's still means 7 years of 0 population growth in order to catch up.
The federal government is responsible for this mess because they enabled mass immigration at unprecedented levels adding fuel to the fire of the housing crisis. Canadians voted for him to fix these issues, not to make them worse. Shame on you for lying by omission.
So you think only 1 person lives in a house?
@@oldmanlearningguitar446No, the beauty of using housing builds is that we don't have to consider the variable number of people living in each house. The country is short 4.4 million homes according to the Canadian Human Rights Commission, and we can build 300k year. That's over 14 years to build 4.4 million homes.
I assume they came to that number using stats Canada's figure of 2.5 for the average number of people per household. It's safe to assume the housing needs of the population does not change if the population stays the same. In real world scenario these totals would be re-evaluated on yearly or even monthly basis to account for changes in the age of population, and behavior.
@@Bozey Actually the Canadian Human Rights Commission said we were short 4.4 million “affordable” homes not that we were short 4.4 million actual homes.
Big difference.
If we were short 4.4 million actual homes at 2.5 people per home then 11 million people out of Canada’s 40 million would be currently homeless with only 29 million people in Canada having a home. That’s obviously not true.
@@oldmanlearningguitar446 Personally I would like homes to be affordable. Having a glut of unaffordable property that people can't afford doesn't help much.
Where do you propose getting wood for all the homes? Canadas forests lost 3 million square km. of trees by forest fires in 2023. All the calculations and aspirations wont grow harvestable trees any time soon.Think seriously bout that.@@Bozey
CBC keep defending Trudeau! I guess the executive will get their bonus this year for sure! 🤔😒
no kidding!
Trudeau is like a bag of dirt
Trudeau doesn’t like that Danielle stood against the Liberals for their policies
They wanted to talk to the new government, Trudeau is not going to be the government much longer.
The minister is disappointed with the federal govt because they showed up with barely a heads up, they blasted Alberta for not wanting to work on housing with the federal govt when the Alberta govt has been trying for at least a year (crickets from Ottawa), and that while they finally have decided to invest some money into housing, when taking into account per capita spending, they are short 100 million dollars when compared to what they are giving BC and Quebec. Alberta is the fastest growing province because of its housing affordability (unaffordabity crisis majority caused by the Trudeau govt), yet they are only half assing the financial assistance. Edmonton has one of if not the most progressive zoning laws in North America now, and Alberta has always been pretty good with keeping up with supply of housing relative to population size. The past 1-2 years have been crazy explosive in population and we are struggling to keep up. The PM needs to be the bigger person and put aside squabbles on other issues and do what’s best for Canadians, stop treating Canadians in Alberta like we are some foreign country. Treat the provinces equally.
I will come there and build some homes, but not until inflation and interest rates come down... Canadians should be building homes, not governments...
$175 million of federal dollars in a housing deal for Albertans and this guy complains that he didn’t get a photo op.
So disconnected it's frightening. The crisis is not about detached homes middle class. The crisis is about housing 9 million people in appartments because folks cant afford a house. So to repeat.myself again like in 2015, each province need to build government funded appartment complexes(housing projects) to house 9 million people. All units with 3 appliances. Coin laundry machines in common area of each floor. Rents capped at $1000 per month maximum.
there wouldn't be a crisis if he didn't allow the open borders so millions could flood in, exasberating upsetting the housing issue. Feds caused the issue in the first place.
The minister forgot to mention the extreme un-needed amount of immigration here in Canada.
Un-needed? Really? Our population isn't having enough kids to replace itself and it's dropping like in almost every western nation. The large baby boomer population is going to be dieing off soon. In order to at least maintain the countries population (growth would be more important though), it needs immigrants. Less population means less tax revenue which leads to less services, issues with social security and on and on and on.
Oh CBC.. your alignment is obvious, and sad. Do better before you get yourself defunded..
CBC the PMO’s mouthpiece.
It is time for this failure Canada pm ..to go
HAS ALBERTA END ZONING ? have they and single family zonning and increase density. Alberta just complains . Alberta has never care to actually do anything new or innovative, Bc Ontario and other provinces have done what needs to be done yet Alberta is ALWAYS complaining they refused to work with the rest of Canada they're looking just as foolish as Quebec.
That is how politics works in AB. be upset about feds unless fed gives you money.
Federal Govt also crashed oil price in 2015 😂…
Time for Alberta to walk.
His Attitude his repulsive. There more to Canada than Alberta.
Some good old cbc propaganda, cant wait till my money isn't spent on this nonsense.
