the bc liberals are the ones who had the chance to do something about housing costs and chose to do nothing instead, despite cries to put in vacancy taxes, foreign buyers taxes, etc.. they only announced the foreign buyers tax on the eve of their demise. basically they did nothing and allowed the snowball to roll down the hill, and it's been unstoppable ever since. at least with the ndp we have the foreign buyers tax, airbnb ban, vacancy tax, speculation tax, etc... none of these measures were even considered preemptively back in crusty's day, despite many calls for them.
