Next provincial election campaign, Doug says that Nate wants to allow a 10 story building on your quiet suburban cul-de-sac. Boom, instant conservative majority via the 905.
The biggest factor for OLP is if they can have a candidate that would convince a sliver of ONDP voters to come on-side. It’s not a secret that Ford consistently polls under the OLP and ONDP combined vote share, and that holds up today: https://338canada.com/ontario/
If OLP were going to peel off Conservative voters with a centre right candidate they would have done it in the last couple of elections. Time to try a different tack, and Nathaniel Erskine-Smith seems like the most palatable candidate to bridge the OLP/ONDP divide IMO.
Housing Bro Politics are the best ever example of the truism „For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong“
Victorian England figured out how to address their housing shortages about fifteen minutes after the first practical passenger train was built, the lessons they learned still apply.
The really interesting thing though is by the later Victorian period the English had all the technology required to build modern apartment buildings and yet they still doubled-down on commuter rail to provide higher quality housing to the masses and didn’t stop until the Second World War.
I’m also ready for NES to go toe to toe with Ford. I’m also prepared for Marit Stiles to be in that role and i’ll even take Mike Schreiner for that job
This is the province where voters accept that Doug Ford is nakedly corrupt but will then unironically say they’re not motivated enough to vote against him because the opposition isn’t „inspiring“ enough.
