Welcome to Inside Policy Talks, the premier video podcast of the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.
In this episode, Peter Copeland, Deputy Director of MLI’s Domestic Program, is joined by Matthew Spoke, a Canadian tech entrepreneur and Founder of Moves, a fintech company for the gig economy, to discuss what lies at the root of Canada’s current housing crisis.
Both discuss how restrictive land use policies, high development charges, and rent controls have driven up housing costs, while underscoring the urgent need for provincial leadership to tackle supply shortages and streamline housing policy.
