No matter what Canadian city you live in, you’ll know the dismal feeling of watching rents and home prices climb higher and higher. Victoria journalist @GregorCraigie’s new book offers solutions. thetyee.ca/Culture/2024/0…
Thanks to @MunrosBooks for having me in to sign books on #IndependentBookstoreDay!
Happy Canadian Independent Bookstore Day to all who celebrate! We're lucky in Victoria to have the outstanding @MunrosBooks. My pal @GregorCraigie of @CBContheisland will be signing copies of his "Our Crumbling Foundation" on the housing crisis at noon today at Munro's.
Today’s @CBContheisland panel with @GregorCraigie discussing decriminalization, Bill 12 and the Haida agreement cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
Peter Craigie, my dad, was 47 years & 39 days old when he died; the same age I am today. As a boy I didn’t understand why people said he was still so young. Now, of course, I do. Each day is a gift.
Here is the link to my discussion with @GregorCraigie about overnight sheltering in parks, prohibiting it and shifting what is considered reasonable shelter. #housing #yyk #bcpoli cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

I will be joining @GregorCraigie @CBContheisland Monday morning at about 7:10 am to chat about overnight sheltering prohibition in #yyj parks and relocation efforts.
I sat down with Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau to talk housing. Are recent investments enough to help Canada's #housingcrisis? And why didn't the government take these measures years ago? We'll air the full interview on CBC Radio in Victoria on Monday morning. #cdnpoli
"A metamorphosis is underway, and that's okay. We need housing, and solutions are disruptive. But it's people who create a neighbourhood, not homes." A great essay on housing, people, and change by @loragrindlay @VancouverSun. vancouversun.com/opinion/op-ed/…

3D-printed homes MIGHT speed up the construction of affordable housing considerably. It's already happening in other countries, and will be interesting to see if it can make a meaningful difference in fixing Canada's #HousingCrisis. #cdnpoli

Do you know the key safety steps to take during a tsunami? ✅ If you just felt an earthquake, don’t wait! Drop, cover and hold on; when the shaking stops, count to 60 before getting up, then move immediately to high ground with your grab-and-go bags. @PreparedBC

I recently read 'Our Crumbling Foundation' by @GregorCraigie. It is about the housing crisis in Canada. If you want something easily digestible and with lots of ideas of where we need to be focusing attention, this is a book for you.
It doesn't cover all the issues relating to unaffordable housing but it does cover myriad issues in a way that is easy to understand. Appendix A is a good spot for policy makers to start as it contains a list of initiatives to be considered to fix the problem.
