Do you know what else Austria has that Canada doesn't? Stricter immigration controls. They allow some immigrants, but for the most part, Austria is for Austrians and Vienna is for the Viennese. And when immigrants do move to Vienna and get public housing, they spread them around to different areas to avoid the ghettoization of immigrant communities and force assimilation. Something the left in Canada would probably not allow to happen.

To be fair, they don't just do that with immigrants in Austria looking for public housing, they do it for economic demographic classes as well. They don't want all wealthy people living in one area, and poor people in another, so they try to even it out.

Now my Crackhead for every building policy doesn’t seem that crazy.
