Time to loosen zoning restrictions and say no to NIMBYs Ms. Mayor. *
Despite earning around $90,000 a year between her work as mayor, regional councillor and with the local electric utility, she says she can’t afford to buy a home in the municipality she leads.
* yeah, she’s still paying off student loans, and I don’t know what zoning restrictions are like in her community. But still.
“I’m not rich, I’m just a regular millionaire” - my favorite line.
I’m definately not a millionaire - what does that make me?
That site is parody - its basically Canadian “The Onion”.
Fishfodder. The answer is fish fodder.
When satire predicts the future we’re fucked.
I started reading and it took a few paragraphs to even remember that you already told me it was satire
Who you calling a NIMBY? Did you even read the article you posted?
Salonen supports last month’s announcement to build 10,000 affordable and attainable homes in the region by 2030.
She’s quite literally the opposite of a NIMBY.
If she can’t afford to live there then it’s by definition not her backyard…
Now what happens when teachers, nurses etc can’t afford it either.
Home owners loving those paper gains and won’t realize it destroys the social fabric of their communities until it’s too late.
Boo hoo bitch, maybe do something bout it.

Yeah, seems like the poster didn’t read the actual article, either
That’s a project from Habitat for Humanity.
Vocalizing support for someone else’s project is a far cry from starting your own projects.
Maybe she is doing something, I don’t know, but the example you gave isn’t a good one.
Pretty much every city in the country needs like ten times that much before things’ll start getting better.
All these proposals are like trying to fight a forest fire with a squirt gun.

Don’t worry, she’ll raise her salary.
