Housing Forum (Ep. 2)

Lock & Key

Luke Quinton hosts a public forum in St. John's on housing, featuring Kevin O'Shea, executive director of the Public Legal Information Association of Newfoundland and Labrador, Doug Pawson, executive director of End Homelessness St. John's, housing advocate and former City of St. John's Councillor Hope Jamieson, and Sherwin Flight, founder of the Newfoundland Tenant and Landlord Support Group on Facebook. If you want to understand why and how we're in the midst of one of the worst housing crises in recent history, then you need to hear these folks in conversation. They also talk solutions. This episode was recorded live on May 6, 2023 at The Lantern in St. John's.
