Experts and analysts suggest that California and Canada are facing housing crises that cannot be solved solely by building more housing. They propose implementing a land value tax as a solution to address the housing shortage in cities like Toronto, Vancouver, San Francisco, and Seattle. The focus is on zoning reforms and taxing land values to prevent current landholders from profiting off the housing shortage.

Cities like Toronto and Vancouver have the same housing woes as American cities like San Francisco and Seattle. Reforming zoning is the 1st step, but without a tax on land values, current landholders can profit off of maintaining the housing shortage. https://t.co/9TfB4MbUdL

Canada has made much progress on zoning reforms, but not enough progress on building housing where it is needed most. A land value tax would fix that. https://t.co/eih5G0P6as
