Bat Out Of Hell was the first vinyl LP I ever bought. I used to buy singles with my allowance (2 bucks a week) but the Bat Out Of Hell single wasn't even the whole song: I was having none of that bullshit. There were a couple of other really good songs from that album being played on the radio, so I did the math, saved up and bought it. Little did I know of the awesomeness that I would ingest the first time I sat to listen to the whole thing.

to be fair, "doing shit" really means "doing shit that benefits people without much power and influence", so, there's basically no incentive other than "because it's the right and just thing to do" which has never been the M.O. , despite everything people have been taught in the movies you make.

we also have a historical problem of demanding a perfect solution to a complex problem and then being upset when nobody can provide it. Even if someone provides a Very Good solution, the moment it causes financial discomfort for wealthy people you'll see next-level lobbying and media saturation of "the plan isn't working."

Seeing as we're currently lacking a multi-faceted plan for this multi-faceted problem, I'd settle for taxing the fuck out of those who own more than 3 single-family houses as a good first step.

Any decision made has to be supported by 51+% of Canadians

A referendum model? Best of luck with that. We don't even elect political parties that represent 51% of voters. You'd end up with a) almost nothing getting done , and b) probably no way back to the current model.
