Supply is non‑negotiable—but the market won’t house those it can’t profit from. Rebuild non‑market & co‑op stock alongside private building.
Reform zoning near transit. Tax land fairly. Cut approval times. Stop rewarding empty or underused lots.

Crisis becomes visible as encampments and “rent roulette,” but the cause is decades of decisions that made scarcity a feature, not a bug.
Immigration targets without housing capacity were a coordination failure. Cities can’t absorb growth without tools or funding.

The Canadian Urban Condition: From Promise to Policy Failure —and Back. For decades, Canada treated its cities like ATMs and battlegrounds— without giving them the tools to build. The result is a housing crisis we can see from every park encampment to every impossible lease renewal. This essay lays out what a serious city‑building agenda would require: real supply, rebuilt non‑market housing, zoning reform near transit, and fiscal tools that match responsibilities. Would value your perspective from the ground. If you want honest, practical urbanism — minus the spin — subscribe and share. Policy follows pressure. urbanism, housing policy, Canada, homelessness, zoning, transit, political economy, non-market housing, fiscal federalism, land value tax #Urbanism #CanadaHousing #HousingPolicy #Transit #ZoningReform #Homelessness #CityBuilding #Affordability #NonMarketHousing #LandValueTax
Canada’s urban promise is fraying by design — housing, zoning, and a politics that rewards scarcity. We wrote how we got here and how we get out.

#Adaptivereuse pairs old and new to strengthen the future of our cities. Reusing existing buildings reduces waste, preserves character, and extends the life of valuable assets. And, create interesting, juxtapositions. The most resilient cities don’t erase their past, they build on it. #CityBuilding
They modeled real constraints:
• Official Plan rules
• Height & setback limits
• Shadow impacts
• Employment density targets
Then calculated what changes if policies are adjusted.
That’s the interesting part.

A curved chocolate brown raw Raku clay wall with a small circular window to the left and one wide one narrow arches to the right. Beside the wall, to the right, is a vase in the shape of a boulder in a nearly-bone-hard-dry stoneware clay.
I made a wall.
