Will Canada ever follow Vienna and its success in challenging the inflationary for profit housing with limited profit housing policy?

It brings down housing costs.

Start at least with legislation to support limited profit housing .

"The system of limited-profit housing in Austria: cost-rents, revolving funds, and economic impacts

Limited-profit housing plays a significant role in Austria’s housing market. Around a
quarter of all households live in homes owned or managed by a limited-profit housing association (LPHA).

These associations are characterised by a distinct business model, based on the premise of cost-recovery and revolving funds.

By deviating both from the logic of for-profit housing and from public housing, LPHA occupy a distinct Third Sector role in Austria’s housing market."
