Government policies and the relationship between the three levels of government can support or hinder aspects of inclusive housing. Notably, related to New Brunswick, we heard issues about:
Develop an Inclusive Housing Policy Strategy targeting (provincial) policy gaps and opportunities to align and focus existing advocacy efforts. (*A task of the proposed Provincial Inclusive Housing Coalition.)
Immediate Priority: Develop a provincial, multi-stakeholder call to action requesting GNB to change current policies restricting co-habitation of persons in receipt of Disability Income Assistance.
Create a Municipal-level, cross sector and multipopulation Inclusive Housing Working Group as a working group of the existing City of Fredericton Affordable Housing Committee. Evaluate and explore ways to replicate in other communities.
To be announced
Montreal Bylaw enacted to encourage affordable, social, and family housing development.
