Understanding Canada Toronto: The Toronto Housing Crisis
Canadians Dissecting Canadian Challenges
This event is being hosted in Toronto, ON. A special & huge thank you to our partners over at Ada for hosting this event!
Understanding the complexities of core issues facing Canadians today can be a difficult, and quite frankly overwhelming, task to take on individually. In the age of social media, it’s becoming near impossible to isolate facts – emotions dominate conversation, extremism echo chambers are becoming louder, and traditional news sources are becoming increasingly partisan.
If you're someone who seeks to build a better future, you will require clear information & unbiased facts to make the best decisions on what we do next.
Understanding Canada is a biweekly reading group hosted nationwide by Build Canada designed to provide you with exactly that. Each session, interested minds gather to read & review Canadian reports & papers on policy, cultural, and economic challenges.
Together, we will investigate the deepest problems facing our country, comprehend the seemingly indigestible webs of information surrounding them, and craft new perspectives.
We encourage individuals of many backgrounds to attend this event. The more diverse the audience, the better the experience.
Season 1 // Session 5: The Toronto Housing Crisis
In our final reading group session for the year, we'll be talking about a municipal issue which affects all of us: housing. This will be a special session with the Build Toronto team joining us for conversation about a topic they know very well.
