Context: House Hansard - 56 - Apr/8/22
Mr. Dan Albas (Central Okanagan—Similkameen—Nicola, CPC)

  • Watch
Mr. Speaker, like everything in this spend-DP-Liberal budget, what they announce is not what we get. Instead of a real ban on foreign ownership and housing like the Conservatives proposed, their so-called ban on foreign buyers is anything but that. Under this policy, a foreign national can still purchase a home. If they separate from their spouse, they can buy another home. If their child turns 18 and wants to buy the house across the street, they still can. This does nothing to help put first-time homebuyers first. Why is the so-called ban so full of holes that it is like Swiss cheese?
