Our biggest challenges in housing, poverty, and productivity stem from our relationship to land. No policy will make homes affordable or end poverty without making land a worse long-term investment.

When a neighbourhood improves, owners get the wealth; renters pay that wealth. This is a fundamental imbalance in our society that land value tax solves.

The public has funded many technologies that today fuel massive private sector rents (excess profit). Economist Mariana Mazzucato believes we should better share this co-created wealth, through policies like citizen's dividends.

"We have enough flippin' tax" Yes, on things that make society better and more productive, like work and building homes. We should shift those taxes to land value instead.

"The uncomfortable truth is that Canada's high home prices are a deliberate policy choice. Our system encourages housing as an investment rather than a basic affordable need." — John Pasalis, President of Realosophy Realty

"There has been a plunder of the commons... and they've been turned into sources of huge rental income. That is illegitimate, that is unjust, that has no moral principle justifying what's been happening and we should be very angry." — Guy Standing

One Aussie says what all Canadian politicians won't. "As more of the population bought into housing as a wealth-building tool, price increases became not only inevitable, but politically desirable." Can you imagine an elected official saying this?

"We should have a shift from taxing earned incomes to taxing wealth and ecological invasions of our commons, and thereby build up a Commons Fund from which we could pay a basic income." - Guy Standing

Noone's talking about what we actually need, which is for prices to come down. The desire to get wealthy off land values is incompatible with the need for affordable homes. Again, no politicians are even acknowledging this.

Canada should have a sovereign wealth fund that pays dividends to all and invests for future generations. It's how we leverage our nation's advantages in natural resources, technology, and finance to build common wealth for all Canadians.

For Taichung I went to see the "Rainbow Village", a series of houses painted by late Huang Yung-Fu, born 1924. He was from Guandong, a soldier with the republican government, and arrived to Taiwan during the retreat. The housing was the camp for such refugees as him, turned permanent residency.

The economy didn't just lose 92,000 jobs last month, but it did even worse than expected. We need a government that actually creates new jobs and opportunities, rather than tariffs and wars that raise costs for all of us.
