==Housing shortage== | |||
Canada has a [[housing shortage]]. | |||
Single adults [[shortage of single-person homes|outnumber single-person homes]] by more than 3 to 1. This leads to some people being stuck living with relatives or roommates they don't get along with, or even ex-partners. Of the single people who ''can'' afford to live alone, it's common to live alone in a multi-bedroom home; this leads to a shortage of housing for families as well. | |||
See [[/Analysis|analysis]] for details. | |||
{{pn|TODO: also write about [[homelessness]] and lack of [[walkability]]}} | |||
<!-- | |||
TALK: in what way should the 3 problems be presented together? | |||
* option 1: elaborate under the same ''housing shortage'' heading, and add more to the ''solutions'' list | |||
* option 2: append the page with new headings for each problem, each with their own solutions list. issue: solutions overlap | |||
* option 3: just have 2 main headings: ''problems'' and ''solutions''; put the problems as subheadings under ''problems''; let the ''solutions'' list address all the problems at once. | |||
BTW also mention high housing prices somewhere, as it leads to [[overworking]] | |||

===Solutions=== | |||
* '''[[Increase housing supply]]''' | |||
* '''[[subdivide housing|Subdivide ''some'' units into smaller ones]]''' | |||
