Director Alex Flynn calls for a compassionate approach to homelessness, not just mgmt of encampments in the @VancouverSun this week. We need comprehensive strategies that prioritize #housing first, harm reduction, and consultation with those most affected. vancouversun.com/opinion/opinio…
Today’s federal budget shows promising reform to Canada’s #housing policy. BSH research has informed some of the initiatives announced today, and we look forward to seeing more details of the programs still to be announced. See our full comment here: scarp-hrg.sites.olt.ubc.ca/?p=3776
Renters are one of the most vulnerable groups in #housing. In our research, we've seen that bad-faith #evictions are rising in ON, and renters are being displaced into some of the most $$$ markets in Canada. Stay tuned for an upcoming report on #FillingtheGaps in Toronto.

The 2024 Federal Budget has some big wins when it comes to #housing. We’ve broken it down into the Great, the Good and Missed the mark. Great: gov is allocating lots of federal land, providing #infrastructure $$ to communities, and leveraging funding for more progressive policy.
The Vancouver park board voted unanimously to toughen up bylaws that govern people sleeping in city parks. @AllardLaw professors Margot Young and Dr. Alexandra Flynn say there are several problems with the bylaw amendments. via @VancouverSun vancouversun.com/news/local-new…
