We do need availability to housing for our children. It’s difficult for post secondary students to even get a job after graduating with a degree....everywhere wants experience but not willing to give a chance. If they cannot find jobs how on earth can they ever save for a home. Read more

I am a 71 year old senior woman, widowed at age 41. I have ONLY OAS and CPP. Included in this amount is a Guaranteed Income Supplement. If I get a part time job I lose the GIS. I receive a total of $1600+/-, per month. By the time I pay rent, I am not left with much.

The most important part of our housing plan is environmental sustainability. Every new home needs to be built with a zero emissions design: less heating and cooling due to top notch insulation. It’s not too expensive if the homes are not built too big. Read more
