    Look at it this way…

    Ford claims that this will provide 50,000 homes. His developer friends will make $8 billion in profit.

    Easy math…

    $8,000,000,000 / 50,000 homes = $160,000/home

    Imagine how much more good those homes could do if they cost $160,000 less each.

    Sure, the developers deserve to make a profit but maybe, just maybe, if other developers had had a chance to get in there the people of Ontario might have gotten better value for their land.
