Webinar Summary:
Fixing Canada’s housing crisis will require a new generation of public policy and finance boldness after decades (including the current one) of failure. In her new book, celebrated academic and author Carolyn Whitzman challenges the prevailing narrative that Canada's affordable housing crisis is merely a supply issue. Instead, she delivers a compelling analysis and innovative solutions that tackle the complexities of this pressing national dilemma. This isn't just another book—it's a call to action for a bold new era of public policy and financial reform, breaking free from decades of stagnation and missed opportunities. Join ULI Toronto for a special book launch moderated by Chiyi Tam, Managing Director at Toronto Chinatown Land Trust where we will discuss current housing policy orthodoxies and shift the dialog to more ambitious, yet doable, solutions.
