They will be rising to $23,000 a unit on average. That's just one level of government.
What we do is borrow money to pay those fees at today's interest rate, carry that to the end of the project and end up trying to pass that cost on to the purchaser. Then the federal government comes and adds GST or HST to that cost, so the federal government is taxing other levels of government's taxes. This whole set-up is just entirely egregious.
We need to have an honest conversation about this. I think we've been talking about this now for almost a decade. It's great that it finally has the lens on it that it does, but what are we going to do about it?
