Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to hold a news conference on Thursday on affordability measures for Atlantic and rural Canadians.
Advocates for low-income renters and students in Nova Scotia are pointing out gaps in the province’s plan to avoid a potential shortfall of 41,200 residential units by 2028.
The plan was announced at a news conference in Halifax on Monday.
Hannah Wood, chair of the Halifax Peninsula chapter of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, says the province’s decision not to commit to additional publicly owned homes is an “extremely weak” element in the document.
The province has previously said it will work with Ottawa to build 222 publicly owned and operated units over five years, but the advocacy group notes there’s a wait list of more than 4,900 households.
