What is @JohnCCoupar and @NPAVancouver's plan for housing?

While the NPA is silent on their plan, their actions during the last election and at City Council speak volumes about how they would take Vancouver backwards on housing for everyone but speculators

Will the NPA re-commit to 40,000 basement rental suites as “mortgage helpers” for owners of single-detached houses, as the NPA’s failed mayoral candidate @kensimcity promised in the 2018 election?

Will the NPA continue to favour the preservation of Shaughnessy mansions over the construction of new rental homes?

Will the NPA keep delaying the implementation of new building incentive programs by 18 months, deferring decisions on creating thousands of new rental homes?

Will the NPA keep opposing the Empty Homes Tax on speculators? Killing thousands of rental homes and millions of dollars for social housing.

Will the NPA keep making it harder to build much-needed social and non-market housing across Vancouver?

Will the NPA keep opposing over 5,500 homes from market-rental to below-market rental, from strata to social housing? #vanpoli
