Developers are sitting on thousands of finished condos while families can't find a home they can afford. I'm in Burnaby at 10 a.m. PT with the plan to turn them into homes, and the choice in front of us this election. Join me: https://t.co/vHgPVemv4l
@Dave_Eby So why did it take you 2 years to figure out the homes were not selling.
Government red tape, high property transfer tax, construction costs and levies, no foreign buyers and a province that is giving away free and clear title land might be part of the reason. NDP stupidity
@Dave_Eby And make those developers very rich. Paying top price and bailing out rich people spending Canadians tax dollars to make your founders rich.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 1000$ FOR EVERY RESIDENT OF BC?????? Oh yea went to give every one of your mps raises!
@Dave_Eby Oh, now you have a plan now that there’s an election. The history shows you don’t have a plan other than a plan to give away our land and run up the cost of everything for every BC resident.
@slowmanluis@JarrydJaeger I think a system managed efficiently with less bureaucracy higher productivity is preferable to this. What we have today is not working.
Yesterday, David Eby announced new "Built in B.C. and Canada" buying rules for public projects:
✅ Minimums for B.C. and Canadian wood, steel, aluminum, cement
✅ Penalties on U.S.-made goods
✅ Buy local when suppliers can deliver on time and on budget
✅ Back the PM's Buy Canadian policy
With Trump coming after our workers, we have to become our own best customer.
That's how we build B.C. strong 🇨🇦
@bcndp Oh please sit down. A decade of blocking every project that would make this province prosperous you now have money to throw around. Do me a favour.
@MPelletierCIO They should be focused on the real issues and telling us how they will fix the eye-watering deficit, fiscal and accounting incompetence, failing healthcare, FN division, drug addiction, homelessness, street disorder and revolving door justice. Oh and DRIPA.
When Trump attacks our workers, British Columbians don't roll over. We become our own best customer.
Our Built in B.C. and Canada rules mean what we build uses what we make, and the people who make it are first in line for the jobs.
Let’s build B.C. strong, together. 🇨🇦
