The Community Development Institute is very actively engaged in housing research, and I am very pleased to be able to share with you our most recent research findings on housing in non-metropolitan BC. Each webinar will focus on a specific region of the province with detailed information about population trends, housing stock, and the housing market. We think you will see from these findings that we are facing critical housing issues in non-metropolitan BC. Issues that are having a negative impact on economic, social, and community development potential.
