Sarah Buhler, law professor and housing researcher, joins us to explore how eviction law, landlord power, and financialized housing are shaping the homelessness crisis in Saskatchewan. Drawing on data, case reviews, and community insights, Sarah unpacks the systems and legal frameworks that are failing our most vulnerable tenants—and what needs to change.

🔥 Key topics include:
• What “legal unhousing” looks like in practice
• Why tenants lose 90% of eviction hearings
• How corporate landlords move faster to evict
• The gap between housing as a right—and housing in reality
• Barriers to justice for people with trauma, low literacy, or no phone access
• Why involving lived experience in policymaking is not optional

Colleen Christopherson-Cote joins Dan and Donna for a compelling conversation about the systems we take for granted—and how they’re actually designed to fail people. From health care to justice, education to social services, Colleen exposes how public policy choices—not personal failings—are driving poverty, homelessness, and burnout across Saskatchewan.

🔥 Key topics include:
• What “system taps” are—and why the bathtub metaphor matters
• Why centralized intake and discharge policies keep failing
• The real reason service providers burn out
• Why education policy belongs in the homelessness conversation
• How we can move from short-term fixes to lasting, systemic solutions
