Ottawa lists former Canada Post distribution facility for housing

Windsor Tecumseh MP Irek Kusmierczyk joins Jon Liedtke on AM800 CKLW to discuss Ottawa’s intention to transform the old Canada Post distribution facility at 4910 Tecumseh Road East into housing as part of their latest prescription for the national housing crisis.

  • Housing Crisis: The federal government has launched the Canada Public Land Bank to convert surplus federal lands into housing, including a property in Windsor.
  • Long-Term Leases: Instead of selling the land, the government plans to lease it long-term to developers, ensuring quicker development and maintaining control over affordability.
  • Local Impact: The initiative aims to address Windsor’s housing crunch by providing more diverse and affordable housing options.
