On previous episodes of this series, we've talked about the impact of an over-financialized housing market. It adds to the affordability crisis, and leads to eviction and displacement.

In this episode, we ask two experts if it's possible to decommodify housing. To build housing that isn't simply a product to be bought, sold, and traded.

We speak to David Wachsmuth, associate professor in the School of Urban Planning at McGill University, and Leila Ghaffari, assistant professor of geography, planning, and environment at Concordia University.

Is it truly possible to decommodify housing when it's become one of the biggest industries in the country?
