Leftists on /news/ continue to say that population density has no effect on the demand for housing, but even Trudeau admits that increasing the population increases the demand on housing. Are /news/ leftists just mentally disabled? Why can't they understand this simple concept?

Canada on Monday announced a two-year cap on international student visas to ease the pressure on housing, health care and other services at a time of record immigration.
Immigration Minister Marc Miller said that there will be a 35% reduction in new study visas in 2024. He said that the international students program has been exploited by institutions offering “sham” degrees, putting pressure on housing and health care.
“It’s a bit of a mess, and it’s time to rein it in,” Miller said.
The number of new visas handed out will be capped at 364,000. Nearly 560,000 such visas were issued last year.
