Excited to share this video but one issue I didn’t get to unpack more in the script was why housing construction costs are increasing so dramatically. If anyone has any insights on the matter, I’d love to know!

Excited to share the latest from About Here! It turns out fire safety has very little to do with the number of staircases in a building…

And just like that, BC becomes the first province to allow single staircase apartments (up to 6 stories) in Canada! 🎉🎉🎉

And having my little video mentioned in the announcement is crazy!!! 😱😱😱

Just wanted to clarify, I charged that amount for a different, long-form video that I spent 2.5 months working on last year. This most recent video for the city is much shorter and I charged about a third of that amount.

Are public hearings a cornerstone of democracy or mostly theatre? We try our best to unpack this messy tradition in About Here latest video.

Excited to host this event at the Vancouver Public Library next week! I promise it'll be more fun than your typical public hearing... Sign up to attend here: vpl.bibliocommons.com/events/672162c…

trying to find the source for this graphic on rising development fees, anyone know it?

Excited to attend @smallhousing's summit next Tuesday! I'll be moderating a spicy debate on who should pay for growth (new housing or property taxes?). DM me for a discount-code for tickets :) smallhousing.ca/summit/

Anyone know where I can find jobs data by municipality? Trying to make an updated version of the map below:

Has anyone ever attempted to make a map of the City of Vancouver's various design guidelines and area-specific plans? Asking for a video!

Publishing a video on development fees tomorrow, what title should I go with? A. The Housing Tax Crisis B. The Housing Tax Dilemma C. The Hidden Costs of New Housing D. Why is Housing Taxed So Much?

Very proud and a bit nervous to share About Here’s latest video. This script took months of research and a bit of me losing my mind but I think it ultimately tells a profound story about our housing crisis today.

It was a HUGE honour to be on the show! I reference the Missing Middle initiative's work all over my videos so I felt a bit sheepish trying to explain development fees to the folks who basically wrote the book (blog?) on this issue.

Hope to see you there!
