With Canada mired in a housing shortage, focus this week turned to the question of whether the hundreds of thousands of international students entering this country every year are crowding others out. The House speaks to students, experts and others, and Immigration Minister Marc Miller also sits down to discuss the federal government’s perspective. Orysia Lutsevych, deputy director of the Russia and Eurasia program at Chatham House, talks about the presumed death of Yevgeny Prigozhin two months after his short-lived mutiny. In the latest instalment of our summer series The House tours the riding of Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes with Conservative MP Michael Barrett. Plus — federal government scientist Yan Boulanger explains how climate change is exacerbating what is now a record-breaking fire season in Canada.
