I think there's a real drinking game opportunity here by taking a shot every time someone's campaign website makes a clear anti-housing dogwhistle. Some of my favourites so far from Jan Liggett (running for Cambridge Mayor) for example:
I've never been more inspired by such incredible leadership with plans about "adequate social services" and "including rental" housing options. The future is truly going to be so bright! Such bold vision!

I have a deep concern with the pattern of ignoring resident and taxpayer voices when decisions are being made by council.
I believe in:
Controlled development, compatible with “good fit” that respects our unique assets
Preservation of our built and natural heritage
Housing options, including rental
As a councillor, I have been insistent about the obligation of elected officials and city staff to be accountable to the public. Taxpayers expect evidence that tax dollars are being spent on defined priorities and are delivered with the highest value for money that council can provide.
