I can't help but chuckle a little at this line: "This is the latest attempt to bolster the made-in-Canada movement..." If only there were some Canadian car manufacturers to help out there...

These are two different types of taxes. Your home, and any increase in value, is not taxed as income like what is trying to be done to unrealized gains. Your residence is actually a loss asset given the upkeep costs and property taxes that
