Congrats to my little brother Alex Bierk on being elected Town Ward for the city of Peterborough ✌️ thank you to my old buddy Dean Pappas from Pappas Billiards for 16 years of service as Town Ward 👌 I just have one question! What is a Town Ward?

Why 'foreign homebuyers tax of 25%' and not also to locals? End housing speculation now! Any 2nd home bought by a local has exactly the same impact on the market as a foreign buyer. 1st home? $0 Tax. 2nd? 20%. 3rd? 30%... Foreign or local. Speculate w stocks & lottery, NOT homes.

Who studies home ownership of new housing units? What's the average number of times a unit is sold before 'permanent' owner?

Yes, but what we doing to ensure they're sold to people who will live in them?
