Canada's homelessness crisis has a direct connection to lack of housing supply
from Searching for Solutions · host Tim Richter
One of the most pressing issues facing communities across Canada is the increase in people experiencing homelessness. From big cities to small towns, it's no longer possible to not see the impacts of a housing crisis that was years in the making. More than 250,000 people are unhoused in Canada - that is a number that should shock people - and it keeps growing. On this episode of Searching for Solutions, Tim Richter, CEO of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness puts into perspective how a slow boiling housing crisis has created the conditions that has led to record numbers of Canadians living without shelter. And how a change in mindset and some policy changes at all levels of government can unlock much needed housing to alleviate the homelessness crisis.
