Welcome back to Trillium Talk, your must-see briefing from Village Media’s team of journalists at the Ontario Legislature.
Every Sunday, Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our staffers at The Trillium to talk about the week that was at Queen's Park — and the week ahead.
Today, we're shaking things up a bit. Instead of a chat with one of our journalists, we're dedicating this week's instalment to The Trillium's political podcast, The Trill.
If you haven't checked it out already, this is your chance. The full audio interview is at the bottom of the article.
Hosted by reporter Aidan Chamandy, The Trill's guest this week is economist Mike Moffatt, who helps us break down the Ford government's latest housing bill — and how the federal budget will impact the Progressive Conservatives' housing ambitions in Ontario.
Chamandy and Moffatt talk about development charges, third-party appeals, use-it-or-lose-it rules, and the noteworthy taxation changes from the budget. And yes, they also touch on the capital gains tax.
You can find every back episode of The Trill HERE.
