Reading through this report, it's pretty clear August is squarely in the "almost everything should be social housing or owner-occupied" camp. Also, they explicitly call for strong anti-trust rules against rental owners. That contradicts your original characterization. Do you have any other example?
I mean, monitoring and regulating market concentration is good. I just don’t think we are anywhere near problematic levels. Except maybe in some isolated cases, maybe Whitehorse, that are worth taking a closer look at.
I agree, but Moffatt's central claim is that people on the left haven't considered market concentration when they call to ban REITs etc. But the one paper he has cited specifically does so!
