Canada Faces Persistent Housing Shortage Across The Country
A cross country survey shows houses remain scarce in Canada with rents climbing. Those housed are unlikely to move as demand outpaces supply. Montreal offers some relief yet overall housing construction struggles to keep up with demand from coast to coast. In Newfoundland and Vancouver Island, slum clearance and new homes are underway. St John’s plans a 2.5 million project replacing 500 dwellings with new homes. Halifax reports 300 new sites, while Saint John faces a 900-family waiting list. Quebec centers report high costs hindering new builds. Continued housing schemes exist nationwide as shortages persist.

Debate over Alberta oil line route roils commons
UAWA Oct. 5 The debate over the prairie pipe line for Alberta oil heated the commons as Howard Green and George Drew clashed with Trade Minister Howe on whether the Great Lakes outlet should be Superior Wisconsin or Canadian ports Fort William and Port Arthur. Green and Drew urged Canada first despite higher costs arguing Canadian needs first. Howe cited economics favoring Superior with a $10 million higher build and $400000 annual operating cost. He said no export permit yet issued and the line would move to Sarnia Ontario by boat from Superior. Drew pressed that Howe’s remarks imply aiming to serve the Chicago market, while Howe maintained the extra cost not warranted. The discussion continued with disagreement on route and markets.
