The housing crisis, migration and the rise of the right-wing populist Vox party are all likely to dominate the campaign.

EU Housing Cost Overburden: Cities vs Rural Areas
Location, Location, Overburden: Rents and the City: Why Urbanites Pay the Price
Housing affordability remains significantly more challenging in European cities than in rural areas.
In 2024, 9.8% of the EU population living in cities were in households spending more than 40% of disposable income on housing, compared with 6.3% in rural areas.
The evolution of the price-to-income ratio in the United States, UK, and Euro Area between 2015 and Q1 2026
The Euro Area experienced a notable deterioration in housing affordability between 2015 and 2022, as residential property prices grew faster than household incomes.
Housing prices rose significantly more than disposable incomes, making homeownership increasingly challenging for many households.

I like this article a lot: Use the example of the housing built in the WWII housing crisis to start building at scale. Follow the examples of Singapore, Vienna and Amsterdam and build quality non market housing. And, since the Feds alone don't have enough land to meet the need, push the provinces (and by extension municipalities) to free up the land.
These would mostly be apartments, not bungalows. But they would meet the need where it exists.
