Pretty extensive roundup of research about how the housing crisis is obstructing other broadly uncontroversial policy goals. But I do feel a bit like I'm taking crazy pills that this is even necessary. www.missingmiddleinitiative.ca/p/how-canada...

Survey question from Bike Share Toronto, asking members if they’d use Bike Share more often if they got a free or discounted transfer to TTC.
Bike Share Toronto is surveying its members about Presto integration, like potentially providing a fare discount when you ride a Bike Share bike to a TTC station. Neat.
The young, educated, ambitious people who want to live in Toronto and Vancouver are being forced out by high prices.
We could build more housing for them, but we prefer our cities to become stagnant retirement communities.
