What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A housing poll conducted for the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board found that housing is a defining issue for nearly 70 per cent of voters in the municipal election. Meanwhile, a housing consultant researched urban development in Toronto, noting that neither leading mayoral candidate's approach is entirely within the mayor's control.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

While the next mayor will influence how Toronto zones neighborhoods, approves developments, and sets development fees, the province holds significant power over these decisions. The consultant stated that whatever the city does, it is ultimately through the powers of the province.
