Stay tune for the announcement of when our May Urbanist Hangout, which will be at The Forks, takes place. To stay up to date on urbanist hangouts & other YIMBY WPG activities, make sure to signup to our mailing list: yesinwpg.com/contact-us/
Why are environmental NGOs like @envirodefence pushing governments so hard to densify existing neighbourhoods & shift construction from detached houses to denser building types? A big part of it is summed up right here:
Bickering & turf war from the provinces is utterly unhelpful. We need all hands on deck to get homes built NOW to solve our national housing affordability crisis.

This past weekend was a huge success for YIMBY Winnipeg! We held strategic planning sessions that were GREAT & full of thoughtful discussions on how to push the needle on the agenda for denser & more diverse growth in Winnipeg. Thank you so much to everyone who made it out!
Free and around the Maples this evening? Come join us at 6 PM as we meet up near 619 Sheppard Street for an Urbanist Hangout. Local activist @chrisclaciowpg will be giving us a tour of the neighbourhood!

Unfortunately these arguments are similar to ones made against housing across Canada. This is why we are moving away from public hearing for projects that already fit within a communities plans. Engage communities early, make a plan and then work the plan.

May have oversimplified Montreal, but Toronto is really something else ...

A great chart showing housing starts per person in Canada from 1949 to 2021. Housing affordability is directly related to the ability of supply to meet demand. We haven’t been building enough for a long time.

It's almost time for another Urbanist Hangout. This month on April 24th at 6pm we'll be celebrating the North-West area of the city, more specifically, the Maples! Thanks to everyone who came out to our last Community Hangout in Feb to explore Elmwood. #YIMBY #winnipeginfill #wpg

Austin Texas suddenly built lots of housing and now rents are down. Hm.
It is actually crazy that mayors and governors are not scrambling to replicate this across the country
With #Budget2024 coming soon, we are nearing two years since the federal government first committed to a new co-op housing development program. It’s time to launch the program and build new co-op homes.
Save the date: Budget 2024 is April 16 at 4 p.m.! From building more homes faster, to making life more affordable, to creating more good jobs—I look forward to sharing our plan to unlock pathways to the middle class for the next generation.
