Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was in the Greater Toronto Area on Monday promising to build 2.3 million homes over the next five years. Poilievre said that the Conservative platform would tie municipalities’ federal infrastructure funding to their pace of home construction approvals — cities that approve 15 per cent more housing each year would get full funding, while cities that approve fewer homes would collect less. He also proposed to free up federal land for more homebuilding, cut the GST on new homes and encourage cities to cut development charges.
