Ok. If you live in Toronto, then I understand where you’re coming from. Toronto has some major zoning issues. There are many single family homes in Toronto that should have been changed into multi unit residential housing a long time ago. Your comment makes sense for Toronto.
I live in Hamilton, which is outside of the GTA but is well-within the Toronto housing market’s blast-radius. It happens everywhere in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton area, which is about 20% of all Canadians. And I follow the housing news in greater Ottawa and greater Vancouver, which represent another 10% of the population put together.
So from my perspective, at least a 30% of Canada has NIMBY political problems, and the rest of Canada is dealing with the people being pushed out of those areas.

But don’t think it applies everywhere in Canada.
