Of course no, super easy for people earning 15$/h part time to rent a 1bd appartement 2000$/month. Or for a couple to buy a 600k condo, 3500$ mortgage + 400$ taxes + 600$ fee per month, 4500$/month is super easy, add power, internet, cellphone, cars, and maybe food? No crisis. Oh I have an idea, let’s take 500k to 1M new immigrants per year, it will fix the health and education system! Obviously not fix the housing crisis as there is no crisis.
I believe that the article was making the point that it’s kind of strange to call it a crisis when the system is working as it has always worked. Instead of trying yet another way to keep the system working, maybe it’s time to redesign the system.

Try not to be xenophobic or people may guess your postal code.
The benefits of opening our borders to refugees isn’t at debate because we can’t be dicks; and we’ll mention it only for exclusion. The benefits of opening our borders to qualified young professionals for temporary or permanent residence is very simple math when compared with the costs. It’s a simpler and less cruel option to just kill old people, given the numbers, and we’re not that cruel by a long shot except where care homes are run by lowest bidd-- oh crap.

Someone didn’t even read the intro to the article…

I’m an immigrant myself, I have nothing against them, especially refugees
