In this episode of The Last Honest Realtor, host David Fleming tackles the aftermath of Canada’s 2025 federal election—and why, despite all the promises, Toronto’s housing market remains stuck in the same cycle of gridlock, speculation, and political soundbites.

What begins with a sharp story about development roadblocks turns into a no-holds-barred analysis of the post-election housing landscape. David breaks down why new legislation, tax promises, and party platforms won’t deliver affordability—and how politicians continue to mislead voters about what’s really possible in Toronto real estate.

In This Episode:

• Why the election outcome won’t change market fundamentals
• How GST and HST rebate promises misrepresent real buyer impacts
• Why political gridlock at the municipal level continues to block real solutions
• How developers, not governments, are dictating the pace of new housing
• Why every party’s housing plan was more about votes than viable policy
