> Alberta gets an overall D+ on the Report Card on More and Better Housing for failing to adopt better building codes, encourage factory-built housing and regulate construction in flood-prone areas, said author Mike Moffatt.
> The Task Force for Housing and Climate, a group dedicated to tackling housing and climate concerns across Canada, created the criteria last year and commissioned the report released Thursday.
> Quebec, British Columbia and Prince Edward Island scored the highest among the provinces with a C+, while the federal government got a B.
Damn it feels good to be a British Columbian.
!ping Can
Felt a little too generous to the Feds, even by the former housing ministers estimation its success in inducing density wasnt great, and factory housing is still in its infancy until (if) the feds start spinning up demand
Feels like you can kick up your better building code score instantly to an A just by doing egress reform lol (and rightfully so)
Ds get degrees.
Scores should be harsher.
