This article from the Balanced Supply of Housing explores the shift in Montreal’s housing policy under Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada, moving from the ambitious 20-20-20 inclusionary zoning bylaw to a streamlined 20% off-market housing requirement. It highlights the implications for housing affordability and social mix, and discusses the city’s commitment to offering city-owned parcels to non-profits for housing development.
