Scholars’ Hub @ Home: A radical proposal to solve the housing crisis

Our Scholar’s Hub @ Home sessions have returned! Our next session is on September 13 at 12 p.m. with Professor of Disaster & Emergency Management in the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies, Alexander Vezina, (BDEM ’16, MDEM ’18).

Imagine a world where charging individuals rent would be against the law. In this session, we’ll discuss this radical idea as a potential solution to the Canadian housing crisis. How would landlords make money without rent? Would this solve the existing issue of problem tenants? How will this affect the housing bubble? Join us and learn the answers to these and many other questions.
