Canada is undergoing profound demographic change, and that’s driven housing policy to the centre of the national conversation.

Questions about housing policy – and specifically how it supports or hinders family life, community cohesion, and economic resilience – have never been more urgent.

Our expert panel addressed how immigration patterns affect supply and demand, how demographic shifts are changing housing needs, and how affordability influences key life decisions such as marriage, childbearing, and household formation.

We also dived into solutions. We looked at how municipalities and developers can respond with strategies that promote affordability, strengthen civil society, and support long-term prosperity.
