Mackenzie Gray The median home in Vancouver requires an income of nearly $240K. The median income in Vancouver is less than half that. Gregor Robertson is implicitly saying that cities like Toronto and Vancouver will never be affordable to average people again. If our leaders are willing to

I can't stop thinking about this figure made by Ruben Mathisen.

PhDs who end up working outside the academy (for whatever reason) are not failures. Enough already with the professional elitism.

Zohran—a self-identified socialist—recognizing the role of private market in providing housing signals a massive change in the Overton window. More housing of all types is the only way to end the crisis. Appreciate Zohran Kwame Mamdani for acknowledging this.
