Eby says governments must step up on housing, can't rely on private sector

Eby says there are proposals at the federal level to sell public land and buildings to help solve the crisis, but B.C. is doing the opposite by taking inventory of provincially and municipally owned land in order to build more homes.

He told the BC Non-profit Housing Association's annual conference his government is the right one to tackle the housing crisis as the province faces “huge challenges.”
