" Landlords in Quebec, however, feel they need to catch up to other provinces as Quebec is still one of the most affordable places to live in the country, said Jean-Olivier Reed, a spokesperson for the Quebec Landlord Association (APQ)."
No I am not. I am not even defending: I did not reject off hand your position, I said it is implausible based on what I know, explained why I think it is implausible and asked for you to explain why you think it isn’t. It’s dialogue, not sparring.
I don’t even have to provide “proof” of policies working. You are the one that said none of them would work, i.e., you’re the one that makes a blanket statement. I’m saying try them all, some combination will probably do it, because these all sound like good ideas that are also not mutually exclusive. You’re asserting something logically stronger than me, so you’re the one with the burden of proof.
The person who makes the original assertion needs to prove it, not the one that “asserts something logically stronger”
I can also just point to the fact that we’ve tried a bunch of these policies at a smaller scale, other places have tried a bunch of these policies at various scales, and as far as I know there isn’t a developed country that has declining home prices in cities, or that have managed to keep any of their bigger cities affordable.
