Les allocations de logement. On peut estimer que les particuliers ne construisent pas parce que les loyers ne sont pas rentables pour les propriétaires d'immeubles locatifs. En donnant à la population le moyen de payer de plus gros loyers, on espère stimuler la spéculation immobilière. 2, record 2, French, - sp%C3%A9culation%20immobili%C3%A8re

[La] pétition demandait aux autorités municipales et gouvernementales d'appliquer des mesures visant à endiguer les effets néfastes de la spéculation immobilière dans le quartier. La ville de Montréal ayant opté pour étaler les hausses de taxes sur une période de trois années, les représentants du Comité des citoyens ont demandé au Maire une rencontre [...] ayant pour but de trouver des mesures d'atténuation des effets de la spéculation sur les comptes de taxes et les loyers. [...] Rencontré à la sortie de son exposé budgétaire, le président du comité exécutif de la ville [...] a reconnu encore une fois la situation particulière du Plateau Mont-Royal et a laissé entrevoir une ouverture pour trouver d'autres mesures pouvant atténuer les effets de la spéculation sur les résidants du quartier. [...] De son côté, madame Céline Delisle qui représente les propriétaires dans le comité des citoyens, soutient que les petits propriétaires moins fortunés qui désirent demeurer dans le Plateau, vont devoir calculer s'ils peuvent encore se le permettre. Ce sont les spéculateurs qui se frottent les mains aujourd'hui, soutient-elle. Avec ces hausses de loyer inévitables, leurs immeubles prendront encore plus de valeur et viendront alimenter la spéculation. 3, record 2, French, - sp%C3%A9culation%20immobili%C3%A8re
