Don Davies: “It’s not that we have a lack of supply — we have a lack of affordable housing supply.”

That’s U.S.-style, southern pork-barrel politics. And I don’t think Canadians support that.

I think it'll cost jobs. And until there's measures that are in place that will address that, I don't think the strategy is complete.

I think political opportunism has gotten to such a point in this place that it’s overriding fundamental respect for democracy.

The idea that only government members get resources for their constituencies brings pork-barrel politics to the table.
