for this particular issue, throwing money at government bureaucracy is precisely what is required to solve the problem, as the root cause is a collapse of government bureaucracy in the first place.

that said, the language from the minister makes it clear that this is an election promise and that it probably won't go anywhere.

i'm going to suggest something else: we need ndp governments across the country at the provincial level to deal with housing. it's imperative.

we're trained to act as though all life is sacred and every second matters, and some of us want to bring silly ideas like god into it, but perhaps what we're learning from asking people with poor qualities of life what they actually want is that this value system is in truth deeply flawed.

conservatives are focused on quantity of life and freaking out about people choosing death over life, but the constant in these deaths is extremely poor quality of life. 

maybe the fundamentalists should stop speaking and start listening.
