Description

Budget 2025 promises generational investments but the housing measures are less than the Liberals promised in the election. We speak to the federal Housing and Infrastructure Minister Gregor Robertson about why they've scaled back their plans and what it means for people who are still priced out of the market — and the role immigration plays in Canada’s housing crisis. We also speak with a labour economist about whether the federal government’s plans to dial back the number of temporary residents coming to Canada by 43% from the target in 2025 is the right approach — and an immigration lawyer about how these cuts impact refugees
