Today, we’re joined by Jennifer Keesmaat, one of Canada’s leading urban planners and the CEO of Collecdev Markee.

Jennifer is a passionate advocate for modular and prefabricated housing, and her work focuses on creating high-quality, sustainable homes in established urban neighbourhoods.

In this episode, we’ll be discussing Canada's housing crisis, how modular construction can help solve it, and what each of us can do to push for progressive housing solutions.

In our first full episode, we sit down with Chris Ballard.

Chris is the CEO of Passive House Canada, a national organization that champions high-performance, energy-efficient building standards for homes and buildings across the country.

Before joining Passive House, Chris served as Ontario’s Minister of Housing and Ontario's Minister of Environment and Climate Change.

With deep expertise in both government and the sustainable housing sector, Chris will help us explore how we can create climate-resilient homes that are better for people and the planet.
