Permanent residents are fine but anyone who is not a citizen or permanent resident of this country should be outright banned from being able to buy property in this country. No idea why this is a controversial topic, Canada who has an even more left-wing government than we do has these measures...

We don't need nor want a Big Australia. Our cities have become unaffordable thanks to mass migration. All we've got is a poorly thought out immigration policy. We used to have a mix of people but lately all we get is Indians so you want us to become Greater India do you?
