On today’s show we hear from New Brunswick minister responsible for housing, David Hickey, who was in Sackville for a public session on housing this past Saturday.
Hickey drove home his message that the new Liberal government is seeking balance when it comes to how it is tackling the housing crisis.
“We’re going to put the necessary protections in place for tenants in this province to make sure that they know their rights, that they have strong rights, to be able to stand up for themselves,” said Hickey, “while making sure that we are creating a competitive development landscape, both for developers and operators of market units. We need to be able to do both. We can do both.”
