4. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, DEC. 6, 2024
GET IT TOGETHER CANADA The United States Postal Service nationally
announcing that they are no longer accepting any mail bound for Canada is
advertising the ‘Trudeau Dysfunctional Government’ and the incompetence of
Canada. I’m sure many Americans are hearing this news and thinking, “Trump
is right,” Canada is absolutely failing to manage their border properly and
Canada’s drug problems because Canada can’t even deliver their own mail!
They deserve the pain of 25% tariffs, and even higher, until they get act
together and stop hurting America!

6. JAY GOLDBERG: PREMIERS SHOULD FOLLOW POILIEVRE’S LEAD ON HOUSING
Sometimes, copying the smart kid’s homework isn’t a bad thing. That’s the
case when it comes to housing policy. This fall, federal Conservative Leader
Pierre Poilievre rolled out an innovative new housing policy that will, if
implemented, significantly lower the price of newly built homes. Poilievre
is promising to remove the federal sales tax on all new homes valued at
under $1 million. Canada’s premiers, including Ontario’s Doug Ford, should
do the same. “The number one cost for a home is government: Government
bureaucrats, government taxes, government gatekeepers,” Poilievre said at
his October announcement. Poilievre’s tax cut would reduce the cost of a new
home by up to $50,000. Canada has a housing shortage of up to 4.4
million homes, according to the Federal Housing Advocate. To fill that
shortage, Canada needs more new builds. Lowering the cost of getting
families into new builds is a great way to tackle Canada’s housing crisis.
If families can’t afford to get into newly built homes, they won’t get
built. By promising to scrap the federal sales tax on all new builds under
$1 million, Poilievre is offering a tangible way to lower prices without
creating another new government program and hiring more bureaucrats. Just
take the sales tax off. It’s that simple. Poilievre’s sales tax cut proposal
“will unambiguously make new middle-class family housing more affordable and
abundant,” said former Trudeau housing policy adviser Mike Moffatt.
Poilievre is also calling on premiers to follow his lead. “I understand that
all provinces are different,” said Poilievre in a letter to the premiers.
“But if you match my announcement with a sales tax cut of your own on new
homes, you will save your residents tens of thousands of dollars.” In
Ontario, if the Ford government implemented the same policy, it could lower
the cost of newly built homes by up to $80,000. The move would have even
more of an impact than a change at the federal level because the provincial
sales tax stands at 8%, rather than the federal 5%. A couple of years ago,
the Ford government set an ambitious goal of boosting Ontario’s housing
supply by 1.5 million by 2031. But the government expects
just 88,000 housing starts in 2024, which is well below the 150,000 needed
for the Ford government to meet its target. And housing starts this year are
down 44% compared to 2023. Ontario is lagging on its housing goals and bold
action is needed. Poilievre is right when he says the biggest thing blocking
new homes is government. Regulation, red tape and high taxes stand in the
way. “The cost to build new homes is just too high,” said Dave Wilkes,
president and CEO of the Building Industry and Land Development Association.
The province is blaming high interest rates. And that’s a factor. But it’s
not the only problem. Taxes are squarely within the government’s purview. If
the Ford government really wants to get serious about making life more
affordable, building new homes and meeting its ambitious housing goals, the
government must act. That means axing the sales tax on new homes and looking
for ways to lower development fees and taxes to make it more affordable to
build and buy homes in Ontario. The Ford government’s key housing policy to
this point has been promoting its Building Faster Fund, which gives
municipalities more funding when more homes get built. But it’s businesses,
not governments, building homes. Throwing more cash at municipal governments
clearly isn’t working. It’s time to focus on policies that encourage
builders to build and buyers to buy. That means lowering prices and not
rewarding municipal politicians with more provincial cash. With Ford’s
housing record lagging, it’s time for him to embrace a new approach, follow
Poilievre’s lead and axe the sales tax on new homes under $1 million.
