The federal government has done nothing about it. Most provincial sehemes are ineffectual, and the municipatities seemr to think the probîem lies with some other level of govern- ment. Would-be homeowners wring their hands and sug- gest rightly that with mortgage rates and building costs wvhat they are, there is no way they can be part of what used to be the standard Canadian dyream., And archltects continue ta design one-family dw'tellings that in other p~laces might have been used to house wvhole tribes. 1 think the easiest level of government to attack is the municipali- ty. The federal government lives in some other worîd en- tireîy, and aven the provincial governments have become so massive and complex that they are increasingly remov- ed f rom the taxpayer reality. Municipal governmants are dloser and more vulnerable, and what they should be forc- ed to do is reduce lot sizes and minimum floor area re- quirements for housas. There is no reason wby most young couples and most older ones couîdn' t live comfort - ably in 600 square feet for example. And a 600 square foot bouse, is a manageable size, the kind of house that most people who know how to use a hammer and saw could buiîd themselves. The problemr is that most cities, towns and townships have size requirements that were designed for an age of affluence that's passed us by. With rising fuel material and labour costs, thé smaller house ought to be inévitable. It hasn't corne about becausa governments react slowly to newv realities, and we tend to bumble aîong beside them squawking Ioudly and un- constructively. One way or another, if I were in my 20's and starting again, 1 would build my owvn bouse, bit by bit, as I could afford the necessary lumber. Thera is no reason at al why the average young couple, with some friends haîping, couldn't f rame, roof, and otherwise close in an adequate bouse on summer weakends. It is time consumning, but not particularly difficuît. And once you understand what you're doing, you'll probably build it bet-, ter than any contractor. So raise hall with your munîcipality about lot and bouse sizes, buy some books on bouse con- struction and think about it. A mortgage, inflation index- ed or not, is just the sama as setting fire to thousands of dollars. Tbat's not news but that too is reality.
