Sparks fly when two opposing voices in Vancouver's housing crisis clash over the housing fundamentals this week: how did we get here? Who’s to blame? And what needs to happen to bring Vancouver out of its affordability emergency? UBC’s Erick Villagomez and Wesgroup’s Beau Jarvis sit down with Adam & Matt to debate everything from the deep mistrust in the housing conversation to the need for foreign investment to the role of government involvement in building housing moving forward. Can’t we all just get along? And, in fact. unexpected moments do emerge where both sides find points of agreement and shared frustration. Can these opposing perspectives find any common ground when examining Canada's $2 trillion capital shortage? What happens when academic theory meets real-world development economics? And why might collaboration be more possible than Vancouver's polarized housing debate suggests? Don't miss this revealing confrontation that exposes where the real battle lines are drawn.
