Introduction To Housing Co-ops
Channel: Paige Saunders
Date: 2020-04-10

With the housing affordability crisis lapping onto the shores of every desirable city in the world, it was only a matter of time before it arrived in Montreal. But unlike other places we may have a weapon, a large movement centered in Montreal has been seeing a huge resurgence: Housing Cooperatives. 

Learn how cities could be saved from the anxiety of our times, from its background in the squatters movement and unions, to a one stop shop for public housing and community building. Do we have a solution to both the housing crisis and a better city in one, or are we doomed to become the next Toronto?
