Carney Is Failing

So? 

The fact is they already own a modular home developer.

So the point is inevitably they're going to be participating in Canada and will be receiving large amounts of this money that carney has just put forward strangely and without explanation for this specific type of home.

So let's walk this through. Carney owns massive shares in a company. That company profits substantially from the sale and manufacture of modular homes. Carney authorizes billions and billions of dollars to go to modular home manufacturers. And this company will be doing business in canada. 

You don't see any issue with that?  Do you need me to connect the dots a little more?

Looks like Poilievre was wrong in saying that nobody is at the Major Projects office to get anything done.

Except it wasn't approved by that office.  LOLOL

I know this is gonna sound crazy, but leftist drivel is still getting dumber and easier to disprove every day. 

Today Beave was trying to say that Fauci never funded research to make the bat coronavirus more transmissible between human cells. 

Not only is that one instantaneous to disprove , it shows that he's only about 3 years behind on the basic facts of the biggest story of the 2020s. Talk about living in a cultist bubble lol. 

Sept 16 2025. Un-freaking-believable.

Canadians have to settle for less now, because the Liberals have so screwed up the country.  Nobody wants a modular home.

This article says Blackstone LNG project was approved on December 30, 2024 and Carney did not become PM until March 14, 2025.  So what is going on here?  Sounds fishy.

December 30, 2024

The Ksi Lisims LNG project, backed by Blackstone Inc.-funded Western LNG, was approved by Canada as of December 30, 2024. This project is set to become Canada's second-largest LNG export terminal, with a capacity of 12 million metric tons per year.

Federal Energy Minister Tim Hodgson hailed the streamlined approval of the project that he said represents one of the largest private sector investments in Canadian history.

Hodgson said from Ottawa that the project is an example of the "one project, one review" system in which the Canadian government has relied on the province for an assessment.

Well I'm sure that some people somewhere do but if it could be done profitably and there was a market for it would have already happened naturally. It's not like we don't have modular home manufacturers in Canada already.

The entire Department's goals are pointless. Over X number of years presumably close to 10 they might build as many as 40,000 homes. But we need to build 3 million additional homes above and beyond what we normally build which were down on this year just to break even and get back to something resembling normal never mind actually fixing the crisis. 40,000 isn't even going to be a drop in the bucket we're spending billions to do it

Ummm... federal energy minister. Not the major project's office.

So your comment said it was coming from the major project office is not only wrong, but you double down on it and then provided the proof that it's wrong

Here you go boys, liberals today   "I'm wrong and I can PROVE it!!!"  Well done kiddo

I can think of about 20 young people where I work that would give a kidney for the opportunity to get a start at this sort of cost. It costs around $450 a square foot to build a house on a lot that could easily cost another $150-350k around here. What's really needed in Canada, especially in rural areas is land reform, where new private property is created out of Fed or Prov crown land and made available to people who need a place to build a home. First Nations could be in a position to make land available too in some cases.

It's probably not something many right wing conservatives could ever get their heads around but who cares what they think?

Land reform refers to government- or community-led efforts to change laws, regulations, and customs surrounding land ownership, use, and transfers to achieve social justice, economic growth, and equitable access to resources. It often involves the redistribution of large agricultural landholdings to tenants and landless peasants to reduce poverty and inequality. While historically associated with violence and revolutions, land reform can also improve rural development, increase food security, and address imbalances in historical land distribution.

If I was starting out these days around here I'd get my hands on a modest sized barge, install a few of these Amazon modular home components on it and drop anchor just about anywhere I'd like.

Install a few solar panels and windmill, a water collection system plus a holding/transfer tank system for sewage to take to the local pump out station and Bob's your uncle.

I bet you could probably accomplish that for around 200k or less. Unconventional for sure so what's needed in addition to land reform is finance reform that can think creatively outside the box.

Of course we're getting a long way down Lefty Boulevard now but that's just me.

Virtually every part of that post was wrong   

and you can't buy a decent up to code house from Amazon for $75,000.  At least not one that doesn't have the words "out" or "doll"  in front of it. 

And while maybe it costs that much a sq ft in your area, but i doubt it. 

And no the first nations won't be giving up any of their land  LOLOLOL At most they'd lease it and that's not what young kids need. 

And the affordability crisis is far less pronounced out in the more rural areas. 

This might help a very tiny number of people, and for 13 billion that's just not good enough

Just watch. The facts will prove you wrong on that. Modular homes cheaper, faster to build. People will gobble up as many affordable homes as we can build.

Of course they would, I don't blame them.  But that's because the Liberals have completely ruined the housing market.  The skyrocketed demand over the last several years leading to housing scarcity and a skyrocketing of prices.  People have to settle for modular homes now when they shouldn't have to.

If that were true it would already be a massive industry. We do have modular home builders already and nobody's gobbling anything up in large numbers.

I mean the facts absolutely show that you're wrong. That's why carney feels he has to give them 12 billion dollars because if he doesn't subsidize it the industry isn't able to stand on its own two feet

And what that means is that he's creating a false economy for the purposes of funneling public money into companies that he is going to have an interest in to the detriment of future Canadians.

The housing crisis isn't going to get any better as a result of this. That wasn't the solution we needed

It's 13 billion isn't it? I wonder how much of that will mysteriously go missing.

Yes. 13,  Not 12. Thanks for pointing that out. Why for you make my day go badder?  

And that's this year, this will be an annual budget for them. They were very clear about that, this is the opening amount not the final amount. We don't know what they're going to spend next year.

Well it probably won't go missing exactly but the liberals have perfected the art of juggling things around so you can say where it went in general but you can never say exactly what it was used for.

And that's one of the reasons that they kind of set up these departments especially as ngos so they can maintain a separate set of books that are kind of harder to get into and don't necessarily have to comply with all the government laws with regards to disclosure.

I mean we have three governments organizations already responsible for low-income housing and housing development in Canada. We certainly didn't need a fourth we could have used any of the existing ones but he wants a separate infrastructure to make sure the money he funnels is much harder to a trace or account for it.

And even if you do it takes so long that by the time you realize the money was inappropriately spent the government just waves his hand and says oh that was ages ago we've made changes to prevent that from happening again but you're talking about ancient history. Which was the case with the missing millions for the arrivecan app. Nobody ever got held accountable for that.

That is the liberal three-step approach to money laundering. Deny it ever happened, delay anyone from finding out that it did happen as long as humanly possible, admit that it might have happened but if it did it was so long ago it's not worth worrying about.

It's like this all over the world.

What people need to settle for are relaxed building codes and increased density and subdivision so people can do things like build modular homes on lots currently zoned for single residences.

Again, the solution is a  comprehensive land reform.

And yes it's like this all over the planet too.

Increase density is being blamed for much of the increasing pricing. For the most part we don't needi ncreased density 

If anything what we need is the opposite. A reduction in density in many of our major metros and it transfer of those populations to more of the outlying regions.

And no it's not like this all over the planet. It's an ignorant thing to say, and a really crappy excuse as to why you were selling out an entire generations future just so you can stroke your own ideology

Urban sprawl means more expensive infrastructure and more public funding to pay for it - taxation in a word.

Increasing density around existing infrastructure is clearly the way to go.

Have they  come out and said the details yet, rumors have it these homes will be built on government land, and rented....what have you heard ?
