CMHC is a federal entity.No, the feds do not have primary responsibility for housing. They do support housing initiatives but it is the provincial government under Dougie, and the local government that are responsible for housing in Toronto. Tory, Ford - the righties who did nothing for the housing situation in Toronto. Can't blame Chow as she just took office.
The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) is Canada's national housing agency. CMHC is committed to helping Canadians access a wide choice of quality, affordable homes, while making vibrant, healthy communities and cities a reality across the country. CMHC works to enhance Canada's housing finance options, assist Canadians who cannot afford housing in the private market, improve building standards and housing construction, and provide policymakers with the information and analysis they need to sustain a vibrant housing market in Canada.
So we can't blame Chow for things that are her responsibility but praise her when she takes credit for other things? How hypocritical.
The opposition has tried to block the provincial government's progress at every turn and then cry about housing?
The Feds are responsible for inflation, interest rates, immigration. All of those things have contributed to the housing crisis that has escalated since 2015 when the Libs took over. Why do you always give them a pass?
