THREAD: Can urbanites ever have a “crisis of the faith” about urban living? Sure we can. Here’s my story about how our own faith in very dense city living was shaken, and how we came out the other side appreciating our urban quality-of-life in Downtown Vancouver even more. 1/?

I'm lucky to be able to share these stories, sentiments and issues during this election as part of the team at More Homes Mississauga. I hope, we hope, the work to prioritize the housing crisis (and solutions) can continue well beyond this election. thestar.com/opinion/contri…

These #Toronto floods were caused by massive government blunders: rather than building at urban density, we let post-WWII highway sprawl asphalt the headwaters of the Don River. Now Ontario wants to replicate that mistake in the Humber watershed, with #413. #HandsOfftheHumber

Bill 185 allows developers to bypass cities and regions to head straight to the OLT to convert cheap farmland to riches. NO regard for flood risks, future cost to taxpayers, other planning concerns nor prioritization of SAVING our Class 1 soil.

Why isn't #onpoli's housing supply keeping up with housing need? New expert report commissioned by my @EnviroDefence team: Ontario governments' restrictions on mid-rise apartment buildings have been making it impossible to end the housing shortage.🧵👇 environmentaldefence.ca/2024/11/13/new…
