There is a growing generational divide in Canada’s housing landscape, one that’s not only pushing young people out of their communities but also leaving seniors behind.

Housing advocate and author Kishone Roy outlines some of the key factors intensifying what they call “generational gentrification” and emphasizes the importance of reimagining housing not as a privilege but as a public good.

Roy spoke at The Walrus Talks Equitable Housing in Vancouver on October 26, 2023.
