text: "This is a tragedy that has many fathers. But spineless politicians deserve much of the blame for a mess"
  
  More like Spineless journalists and media terrified of telling the truth. Politicians come and go every couple of years but journalists and media like the CBC have been here for decades and to this day never mention the main cause of the Vancouver housing bubble: massive offshore money laundering, tax evasion and fraud. Up until 6 months ago, the CBC only interviewed Bob Rennie , the Vancouver 'condo king ' for any perspective on Vancouver housing. Total deliberate obfuscation by media to support Government inaction.
