The article talks about “a comprehensive, solutions driven and data backed exploration” to overcoming NIMBY objections to new developments. It’s been my experience that NIMBY objections are emotion based and well thought solutions and particularly data generate a strong negative reaction. The NIMBY solution is changing hearts and minds. Data, especially, doesn’t change hearts and minds. Hearts and minds are changed by individuals who listen sincerely, appreciate differences and cooperate on a mutually rewarding solution.

Housing is among the most fundamental human needs. Our health, wellness, and relationships all depend on stable housing. National Housing Day is a time to recommit to the goal of ensuring that all Canadians have a home and to express optimism that such a goal is attainable, with the right investments. Peel Region’s HOME advocacy framework shares some lessons we’ve learned in addressing the affordability crisis – recognizing people’s holistic needs to help get and keep housing.   1) Homes are for living, so ensure the use of housing for homes by eliminating speculation and hoarding through policy tools. 2) Offer more funding for wraparound supports because housing stability is not just about supply. 3) Maximize affordable supply by maintaining and expanding community and supportive housing – for-profit market supply alone will not solve the housing affordability crisis. 4) Expand income and social supports because individuals shouldn’t have to choose between their home and other necessities.   In Peel, less than 25 cents of every dollar spent on housing supports comes from the provincial and federal government. All levels of government need to work together to deliver much-needed, effective, interventions that can end the affordable housing crisis. This video from Peel Region includes some Human Services leaders who enable great work from our committed and resourceful teams supporting people in their time of need.
