Description

Guest: Victoria Gibson, affordable housing reporter Housing affordability and accessibility are only getting worse. For many Canadians, they might be just one bill or unexpected expense away from being unable to afford that month’s rent. Renovations, rent, or repair expenses are all factors that have led to more than 600,000 kids growing up in precarious housing across the country. As part of the series “The Kids Aren’t All Right,” we take a look at what that means and how a child might experience these challenges. This episode was produced by Paulo Marques, Brian Bradley and Saba Eitizaz.
