Kudos to our talented friend and colleague @uytaelee who created this excellent video (sponsored by @Vancity) on the housing crisis in Vancouver. Knowledge is power! Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

[Uytae Lee @uytaelee]

This video was tricky. I spent several months researching, writing, and losing my mind a few times before I felt confident enough with the script to produce it. It challenged many of my core assumptions around housing (and its elasticity) and I hope it does the same for you too.
