Which party has the best plan to address the housing crisis: Two big city mayors weigh-in

In a candid conversation on the season premiere of ‘The West Block’ London’s mayor Josh Morgan tells host Mercedes Stephenson that all levels of government need to get around the same table and cooperate because “blaming one level of government or another does not get more units in the ground quicker.” Stephenson also speaks with Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek who says the housing crisis is only getting worse as more people move to her city: “It's really sort of the perfect storm. We started to see people in positions of vulnerability when it came to housing, especially glaringly during COVID. And since then we've been taking in a lot more people, over 60 individuals a day. If you break down the math and we just can't keep pace.” Stephenson also speaks to the "Inside Politics Panel", The Globe and Mail's Ottawa Bureau Chief Robert Fife and The Toronto Star's Stephanie Levitz, about what's at stake for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre as the House returns for a new session.
