The Speculation Tax is one reason rents are down 10% and housing prices have stopped skyrocketing. So why do the BC Conservatives want to kill it? The Speculation Tax has turned 20,000 empty units into homes for people. You only pay the Speculation Tax if you own multiple homes and leave them vacant - that's less than 1% of British Columbians. We've got a long way to go before housing is affordable for people, but our plan is having an impact. We can't stop now. | David Eby
