Ontario’s Housing Tracker. I would love to see unit type breakdown as well as maps of where this housing is being built.

I noticed that Mississauga's 2023 target is one of the only ones that's higher than the housing since 2022. Looking at other big cities like Toronto, Brampton, Oakville, Markham, none of them are that high.

I wish housing starts included housing demolitions (net housing starts, not gross). I know it's intended to show economic contribution but I'm much more interested in how the total count of each type changes.

Stats Canada tracks demolitions but IIRC it's a paid report.

Numbers for cities in Ontario for July 2023. If City of Toronto is at 3,110,000 last year it is at least 3,200,000 now. Also Mississauga has started growing again and Brampton is exploding!

Are US Metros/Cities seeing this? Australia? Will look.

So MonkeyRonin on SSP has compiled the numbers for different Toronto measures: Golden Horseshoe: 9,983,809. He notes that this is above the Chicago Region’s population so should settle the unending debate! Lol
