I'll take the example of inclusionary zoning. I went through an exercise of inclusionary zoning in the city of Toronto, with some requiring a percentage of affordable in a new development, and that just killed the pro formas and still does.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7868294\" data-originallang=\"en\"> It all depends on the individual project as to whether that's 10% or whether it's 15% or 20%. If you said to me that 100% of it has to be deeply affordable, I will tell you now that it probably won't pencil out, even at a 1% interest rate. It's all a question of looking at the numbers and seeing what works.</p>",

Je prendrai l'exemple du zonage inclusif. Je suis pass\u00e9 par un exercice de zonage inclusif dans la ville de Toronto, certains exigeant un pourcentage de logements abordables dans un projet domiciliaire, et cela a rendu les co\u00fbts pro forma prohibitifs et c'est toujours le cas.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7868294\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Tout d\u00e9pend du projet en question, qu'il s'agisse de 10, 15 ou 20 %. Si vous me dites que 100 % des logements doivent \u00eatre tr\u00e8s abordables, je vous dirai d'embl\u00e9e que c'est probablement impossible, m\u00eame avec un taux d'int\u00e9r\u00eat de 1 %. Il s'agit d'examiner les chiffres et de voir ce qui fonctionne.</p>"
