I agree - if there is a big-picture target for growth, it's so important that there are strong lines of communication and collaboration between citizens, cities, provinces, and the federal government if it's going to work.

To the poster above you - Trickle-down is a thoroughly shitty "¯_(ツ)_/¯"-style policy. But so is any decree from above that lacks clear objectives, regularly measured outcomes, and checkpoints with the citizens. Our system is struggling right now when we reach checkpoint moments. Discussions get railroaded into these 'oh that's racist' or 'oh we should have 0 immigration' polarities. Discussing these things is worthwhile & good.
