On Point With Alex Pierson

Olivia chow is promising 25k houses despite no affordable houses being built in this city for over a decade. Meanwhile– at the federal level, Cabinet’s National Housing Strategy Act, which enshrines a "right to adequate housing" by 2030, reveals that only 106,000 homes have been financed since 2019. On top of this, demand for housing was pegged at over 3.5 million last June and in order to meet that demand, at least 440k homes need to be built per year until 2030. Host Alex Pierson speaks with Eric Lombardi, Founder of More Neighbors Toronto, to speak about how and when the city will catch up to its housing promises. Learn more about your ad choices.
