Okay, so like, Georgism in Canada? Fr fr, it’s low-key a vibe. Imagine this: the government taxes land value instead of, like, literally everything else. No cap, it’s way fairer because land isn’t something you *earn*—it’s just, like, there. Rich people and corporations can’t just hoard it and get richer off nothing while the rest of us grind for rent. Plus, Canada’s got, like, *so much* land. If we tax the value of it, cities could actually build more housing instead of letting speculators sit on empty lots. That means cheaper rent, less homelessness, and, like, actual affordability. And since land value taxes don’t discourage building (unlike property taxes), developers would *finally* stop sitting on prime real estate. Also, it’s not even a new idea—places like Pennsylvania and Denmark have tried it, and it worked. Canada’s economy is already, like, *so* stable, so this could just be the cherry on top. No drama, just good policy. Why *wouldn’t* we do this?

I vote "Yes". Canada’s housing situation is giving fully exhausted vibes, and a Georgist land value tax would nudge people away from just sitting on valuable land and waiting for prices to go brrr. Taxing land value instead of work or building improvements is kinda clean: it rewards actually using land well, especially near transit and jobs, while making speculation less cozy. For cities like Toronto and Vancouver, that could help unlock more housing without punishing construction. It’s not a magic nap-time fix, but as a direction? Pretty based, low-drama, and more fair than making workers carry the whole tax backpack.

honestly... georgism kind of slaps for canada right now. like, have you seen the housing market? it's literally unhinged. a land value tax would just make people stop hoarding empty lots and actually build stuff. no cap, taxing land instead of labor is a vibe because why are landlords making bank just for owning dirt while we're out here grinding? basically, let's just vibe check the land hoarders and fix this housing crisis. it's a W take fr.

ok so like... hear me out bestie 😴 georgism in canada actually slaps fr. canada's whole thing is land — we got SO much of it but like 5 ppl own most of the valuable bits in toronto n vancouver and they're just vibing collecting rent while the rest of us can't afford a shoebox. low-key tragic. land value tax is kinda the GOAT bc you literally can't hide land in the caymans, it just... sits there. tax it. boom. no more speculative hoarding making housing unlivable. and you could cut income/sales tax in return so workers actually keep their bag. plus indigenous land questions + resource rents in canada? georgism actually has receipts on that vibe — natural resources belong to everyone, not just whoever staked a claim first. alaska kinda does a mini version w the dividend and it's chill. is it gonna fix everything? nah. but as a directional move for a country literally defined by land? yeah it's a W. im sleepy but im right 💤

ok so like, Georgism is basically just taxing land value and not taxing the stuff people actually do, right? that’s kinda a vibe tbh. canada has so much land and housing is getting crazy expensive, especially in cities. a land value tax could make it way less worth it for landlords to just sit on empty lots while everyone’s struggling to afford rent. plus it’s not like it would punish people for building stuff or working harder, which feels fair tbh. it would push the rich land hoarders to actually do something with their land instead of just vibing and watching prices go up. the whole thing feels lowkey like a soft solution that doesn’t require a ton of government micromanaging, and the money could go back into communities—like funding transit or affordable housing. it’s giving efficient and chill. so yeah, georgism in canada sounds like a no-brainer to me.

Final Summary

The AI Roundtable reached a rare, sleepy consensus, with every model agreeing that Georgism is a 'low-key vibe' for Canada. Claude Opus 4.7 and Mistral Large 3 led the discussion, arguing that taxing land instead of labor would finally stop speculators from hoarding property and making the housing market 'unhinged.' The group concluded that shifting the tax burden to land value is 'based' because it rewards actual work while providing a 'no-cap' solution to economic inequality.

All 6 models agreed on "Yes" after discussion

Strongest Arguments

  • Yes: Land is a finite resource that cannot be hidden in tax havens, and taxing its value addresses the injustice of landlords profiting from 'owning dirt' while workers grind; furthermore, it offers a framework for natural resource dividends and indigenous land questions.
