Looks like there's some great ideas here on how to integrate children into dense urban environments. Looking forward to checking it out. @plassurban @EFCL @bevesslinger @ChildFrndlyYEG @childfriendlyAB #yeg #yegdt

Think child-friendly buildings are unfair? In BC, people are fighting for pet-friendly housing! https://t.co/IhmfvlCzLD

Hey city leaders, if you want families to stay, you need to design for kids! https://t.co/QameU2t0V4 (via @Curbed) #urbanism #PLAYceForKids

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

What if, instead of devising ways to deter kids from using public space, cities were built to encourage it? A recent report talks about how child-friendly design goes well beyond playgrounds: https://t.co/OkTomncsBj #yeg #yegkids @bevesslinger @aaronpaquette

As of January 1, 2018, landlords can no longer discriminate on the basis of age in Alberta. Changes to the Alberta Human Rights Act are now in force: https://t.co/dmH41tEuQz #yeginfill #childfriendly #yeg

Court challenges in future? Potential lack of clarity re: age restrictions for homeowner' associations, says David Cumming at McLeod Law

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

.@BILDAlberta says ppl still want an affordable single family house. Affordability and choice must be enabled, not restricted.

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

Alberta has been an outlier on 18+ buildings for a long time, says @kirstengoa. This is what needed to be addressed.

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

.@BILDAlberta supports age restrictions in condos and housing in general. #AREA Conference.

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

If similar restrictions were applied to other demographic groups, there would be issues, says David Cumming at McLeod's Law

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

Pros & cons: CCI says condo owners' right to choose their community being taken away. Issue on panel: Do human rights apply to condos?

[CFHC Alberta @childfriendlyAB]

Q: Why are age restrictions suddenly an issue? Court challenge in Jan 2017, need for more & diverse hsg options across demographic groups.
