On Tuesday, federal Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland announced new measures intended to help Canadians with the affordability crisis, including funding for new affordable homes and a new "Canadian Mortgage Charter," which the government says will give homeowners new rights when facing a mortgage renewal. Meanwhile, the B.C. government has been introducing its own slew of housing-related policies, including a crackdown on short-term rentals. Dustin Miller, a real estate broker from Victoria, joins CBC's Tanya Fletcher to talk about the immediate aftermath of the province's new regulations.
