I recently bought a home, and even though I get screwed in a sense if prices plummet, I completely agree they should. Homes should be primarily to live in, not an investment mechanism. There’s nothing wrong with owning an appreciating asset, be it a home or anything else, but it’s not the government’s place to guarantee that (other than bonds they issue, obviously).

The Prime Minister represents the people of Nepean in Parliament, whether they voted for him or not, and he heads the Canadian Government on behalf of the citizens of Canada. A more correct title to your post would be “I disagree with the Prime Minister”. It’s absolutely right that this cabinet is trying to have their cake and eat it on housing: increasing supply and magically preventing prices for existing units from depreciating. That being said, and even though it’s besides the point: the Cons would done worse.
