The federal government doesn't "hoard" land around areas where people would want to purchase a first home. The vast majority of crown land is not around any major urban centers.

Canadian tech workers make way above median income levels.

Are you sure? GDP per Capita is 71k cad vs a developer salary of 87k cad. Seems pretty average.

GDP per capita isn’t the right figure to compare it to.

You want median individual income, since median is what was under discussion.

GDP per capita has nothing to do with salaries. I believe average salary for Canada is $59300 so that puts dev salaries well above average.
