>I'd also like to see a ban on corporations purchasing private homes and significant tax increases on non principle residences.

This would actually solve the problem (the calls are coming from inside the house- foreign investment is merely a scapegoat), and as such it won't be done.

Foreign ownership is a problem, especially in some markets, but I agree it's not the only problem, nor the biggest problem.

But any step forward is a win.

Thank your MP and ask them to solve the next problem: Canadian corporate ownership.
