The cons have a strong morally conservative base. They have zero pro choice MP's. PP wanted a barbaric cultural practices hotline. If the cons get elected they will spend more time on restricting abortion access and gender rights then they will on housing.
To solve the housing issue the government needs to start building housing for working people and rent if for below market rates. That's what Burnaby is doing now.

Burnaby is diving into the deep end by becoming its own developer of affordable housing. This fall, the city is planning to launch its own municipal housing corporation called the Burnaby Housing Authority.
The focus: housing that is “deeply affordable.”
Burnaby is aiming for units that rent at 20 per cent below the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corp.’s median for an area, which would put it at 50 per cent below market rents. For people in need of greater subsidy to afford a home, the rents could be even lower.
