"Our future lies in smarter, more inclusive communities. That means accepting, and even embracing, density—not as a last resort, but as a necessary step toward solving the housing crisis"

"We need zoning that reflects how folks live today. And we need funding models that prioritize suitability, not just scale"
"Anytime the topic of high-density housing is brought up there is sure to be a contingent that says they support the idea, just not in their backyard (NIMBY)"
"In a world that often feels chaotic, it's comforting to know that here in Waterloo Region, we have a history of coming together"
"Every party has outlined some policies and goals, and it’s up to us, as voters, to take a close look at these plans. What we need now is more than just quick fixes. We need wide ranging, long-term solutions that tackle affordability at its core."
"If we want this crisis fixed, we need to sort out this paradox. Do we want this fixed or not? If so, we need to loudly support the fixes when our politicians respond to our demands for action."
