I ran across an post the other day, by a Mexican Engineer that in 2007 Mexico completed something like 2 million low cost housing units - the highest in Latin America. Thus a rather remarkable accomplishment, considering the budget constraints they are under, while at the same time meeting 'sustainable' and green content often mandated in 'peoples' type projects.
Mexicans should be rightfully proud that they have become world leaders in this field by in the process of providing safe, affordable housing for it's people. Canada and the U.S.A. does not have the political will or the compassion to properly house its poor to middle class citizens.
Here is link as to how they make it happen economically. It is long, but if you are interested?
