Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Brantford most vulnerable to tariffs
#50
Yeah, I'm simplifying again for brevity... Human selfishness and fear of the unknown exists everywhere - but the DNA still exists in NL to build a normal block of apartments on a boring city lot. I bet there are more hurdles today than there used to be, but the ability and concept is still in people's minds.

Here? Nobody would even know how to approve one at this point, let alone build it with a normal cost structure. That goes so much deeper than taxes and fees...

I think what we've been seeing in the US for the last 20 years is the unholy combination of modern media smashing into the mostly-American cult of the individual. I don't think it's sustainable.
