Explore the forgotten chapters of Canada's housing history as we uncover how past policy shifts have shaped today's housing crisis. Imagine a time in the 1960s and 70s when Canada was a beacon of affordable housing, thanks to robust government involvement. Fast forward to the 1980s and 90s, when a pivot towards private market solutions and homeownership began to unravel that fabric, leaving many Canadians struggling to keep up with surging prices and stagnant wages. As we journey through this complex tapestry of historical decisions, you'll gain an understanding of how these changes have impacted homeowners and renters today, particularly in hot markets like Vancouver.

As we commemorate the 40th episode of Keeping it Real, I invite you to reflect on the freedoms we treasure, especially during Remembrance Day. Your participation is key—share topics you're passionate about as we continue to explore new ideas and stories. Don't forget to check out related episodes and resources available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or my website, NorthVanHomeSales.com, where you can find helpful buyer's and seller's guides. Join me, Jacquie McCarnan, in honoring those who've fought for our rights while navigating the often daunting landscape of real estate.
