Former Edmonton mayor Don Iveson emphasized the significance of the factory floor in resolving Canada's housing crisis during his speech at the annual meeting of the BC Council of Forest Industries. He discussed the impact of climate change on cities and the need for proactive measures. Iveson also mentioned the Canada-wide Task Force for Housing and Climate, which aims to build 5.8 million homes by 2030.

That was the message former Edmonton mayor Don Iveson gave politicians and leadership in B.C.’s forestry industry Friday at the annual meeting of the BC Council of Forest Industries in Vancouver.

Those included tax reforms, a rebalancing of immigration practices to increase the number of skilled labourers in Canada, and tying federal housing financing to municipal pro-density reforms. Other measures included an overhaul of national building codes to address risks from climate change and mapping to identify high-risk areas for housing growth.

But according to Iveson, all of those plans hinge on channelling billions of federal housing dollars into building or acquiring 2.3 million non-market and below-market units.
