Making complaints and vague promises takeles no time or effort
Coming up with an actual program to address (part of) the problem without causing some unintended side effects is a lot more time consuming.
The Conservative plan (last time I saw it on their website, it may have evolved in the last few weeks) is roughly equivalent to what the Liberals are doing now: a carrot and stick strategy to encourage municipalities to zone more housing. I've heard some commentators say it wouldn't cover quite as many municipalities, and it's more punitive, but it isn't that different.
They're both insufficient to tackle decades of mismanagement.
