Abstract:

Canada has been facing a housing affordability crisis for the last decade. However, housing has become unattainable for most markets due to multiple factors in the last five years. Though many believe the solution lies in building more homes, there may be more aspects of the system that continue to perpetuate problems like a housing crisis. In this paper, we will be analyzing housing as a system and deconstructing it to see its shortcomings of the system. In doing so, this paper hopes to address the complexity by understanding the different layers of the problem and understanding the different leverage points to change it.
