Lol. You think minimum wage increase will solve the problem?

The only way housing/rental costs can go down is by building more units. As long as Burlington does not incentivize more units being built, it's just a race to the highest bidder and then you'd need another minimum wage hike in 5 years.

Sounds like a good argument for UBI and guaranteed housing. Thanks. I’ll be sure to credit you.

Universal basic income? Guaranteed housing for every Tom, Dick and Harry too?

How to lose an election should be the title of your manifesto... Comrade. Lol
