VREP #523 | How Vancouver Became a Battleground Between the Generations with Phil Webb

The debate over Vancouver's Villages Plan has become something bigger than a simple zoning discussion. It has become a charged battle over the future of our city. As the city holds public consultation on the plan to upzone 17 neighbourhoods across Vancouver, housing advocate Phil Webb sits down with Adam & Matt to report from these contentious meetings at City Hall. They unpack the fears of the opposition, assess the plan on its merits, and dig into Phil's warning that protecting the status quo only shuts younger Vancouverites out of the market for good. Is the plan smart policy or just more condos that no one asked for? Whose voices are actually being heard here, and who is really footing the bill? And are the battle lines over the city's future actually in fact drawn by generation and wealth? The future of the city is being shaped today & the conversation starts here.
