We’re spending our time working with local governments and communities to build the housing people need - because people and communities are safer when people come inside.

Vernon-Lumby MLA Harwinder Sandhu stands outdoors in front of a newly built multi-storey apartment building, hands clasped, smiling slightly. The building has modern siding and rows of windows, with a paved walkway and young trees in the foreground.
Inside a bright, unfurnished apartment bedroom, MLA Harwinder Sandhu leans toward a neatly made bed with a pink-and-white quilt. Two windows let in daylight, with a neighbourhood visible outside.
MLA Harwinder Sandhu stands inside a clean, modern apartment kitchen with white cabinets and open shelving, looking to the side. The space appears new and unused, with bright lighting and neutral finishes.
Seen from behind, MLA Harwinder Sandhu stands at a window inside a new apartment, looking out over trees and nearby homes. The room is bright and minimal, emphasizing the view and natural light.

Mortgage Interest Rates capped to affordable levels.
The above should make renting more affordable and additional housing stock would become available. More security for Property Developers.

It’s another month of good news for renters in BC! Rents are continuing to come down in our province, and we are leading the way in the whole country. #bcpoli #homesforpeople
Spent the day on Salt Spring Island with MLA Botterell to announce the opening of a new supportive @bchousing.bsky.social project with 32 deeply affordable units with supports + 4 affordable rental homes for low to middle income people. #homesforpeople #bcpoli
We’re taking action on homelessness in Penticton.
Helping people experiencing homelessness find a safe, supported place to stay 🏠 with the City of Penticton, snpink’tn Indian Band, and local partners.

And we got here the right way: supporting affordability by making 20% of the 133-unit BC Builds-funded tower to be rented below market rate, and supporting our neighbours who were in the former supportive housing site to move into other permanent community housing.

People need homes with rents they can afford in communities they love.
We’re building new rental homes, and cracking down on speculation, and we are seeing progress for renters across BC!
And there’s more to do. #BCPoli #HomesForPeople

Affordable housing isn’t just about rent or mortgages — it’s about opportunity, dignity, and keeping families rooted in their communities.
I’m running to stand up to profiteers and fight for policies that keep housing accessible for the people.

Yep. Even if my house loses half its value it matters nothing to me. It’ll still be my home, and it will still be worth more than what we paid for it just ten years ago. #homesforpeople
Totally agree! Single family dwellings are so wasteful and the spread of the city is detrimental to being good for humans!

A Denver civil rights leader recently shared that they're moving to a new apartment w/lots more amenities than their current one. This leader happens to be a wheelchair user/nondriver. Monthly rent will stay the same thanks to developer building less car parking. #HomesForPeople
Virginia’s median home price is $392,682, with rent at $1,995/month, yet Airbnb hosts earn more from short-term stays. This profit-driven trend prices out families. Tax short-term rentals, cap property ownership, and prioritize homes for people, not profit. #EndHousingSpeculation #HomesForPeople
Virginia’s housing crisis isn’t about a lack of homes—it’s about who controls them. According to Realtor.com, over 36,000 homes are for sale, yet Zillow lists nearly 27,000 rentals, including many short-term Airbnbs. Let's find a solution to this together!
