Source: Homelessness and Housing Insecurity Among Im/migrants in Canada: A Scoping Review”
Published in the Canadian Journal of Urban Research
In this episode of Me, Myself, and AI, Casey B explores what Canadian research tells us about housing insecurity and homelessness among immigrants and migrants — and why it looks different from mainstream narratives about the housing crisis.
Sparked by a personal moment — a former boss stepping into leadership at the New Canadians Centre — Casey brings a second-generation Canadian lens to a scoping review of over 50 Canadian studies. The research reveals that housing insecurity for im/migrants isn’t just about affordability, but about timing, visibility, trust, and fragmented systems that don’t speak to one another.
The episode unpacks hidden homelessness, the gaps between immigration and housing policy, and the intergenerational consequences of housing instability. It asks a deeper question: what would it mean to design housing systems that actually account for migration, rather than assuming stability?
Grounded in research, lived experience, and systems thinking, this episode moves beyond headlines to examine the structures underneath Canada’s housing challenges.
