York Region is often viewed through the lens of suburban affluence with its single-family homes and grassy backyards. But beyond this façade are people who live a different reality. This episode examines housing from past to present, with an eye to how York Region can provide more equitable and livable options for its residents.

Our guests, Michael Braithwaite (CEO, Blue Boor) and Mayor John Taylor (Town of Newmarket), discuss the landscape and trends in the Region, the housing crisis declared in 2021, and share ideas on how to support new strategies, policies and housing models.
