Roundtable on the Housing Crisis

Back in January 2023 when few people were talking about the housing crisis, we were already on the case! We brought together a diversity of political and community groups to speak at a communitiy roundtable about the factors causing the crisis, and how to solve it! We heard from Celine Brault an activist and volunteer with the Chelsea Housing Corporation, Daniel Blaikie, NDP MP from Manitoba, Latonya Ludford, an expert on urbanism and housing, and Raphaël Déry, a lawyer working with cooperative housing.

The hybrid event occurred on January 14, 2023 at the University of Quebec in Outaouais campus (Hull), both live speakers and speakers appearing by Zoom were featured.

Their experiences and difficulties encountered advocating for affordable and accessible housing were the focus of presentations.
