      400 million =400 single family, 4 bedroom, homes. That’s a roof for 1600 people.
      Probably 3200 people could be housed, if the province decided to get into the condo building game.

      Instead we are building a parking garage on a lake, on the most expense land in N. America, beside a GO and subway station, for a private company that has an insane business plan of creating a luxury spa and its crack-pipe dream of 4,000,000 ultra-wealthy visitors a year.

      Madness

        1 mil per house is well above average too.

        You can house way more for that price tag.

        But hey, we’re spending billions for a spa owned by a foreign company that lied about how many spas they actually run and is definitely lying about how many visitors it can handle
