Housing affordability in Ontario is in crisis. How do we solve such a big and complex issue? First, we need to stop pretending there’s an easy fix. Part 1 of this 2-part series outlines the complex causes behind this issue. Part 2 outlines some possible solutions, that move beyond simply building more housing (watch here: • The Housing Crisis, Pa... ).
