A somewhat odd opening statement on the webpage linked above:
Although Halifax’s economy, population, and demographics continue to grow and thrive in this city, Halifax’s housing crisis continues in a state of de-escalation. The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) reported a record low of 1% vacancy rate for rental housing in January 2020. This has brought the city below much more populated Canadian cities such as Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal. Our city’s current housing situation does not yet reflect the growth and vibrancy that has taken over Halifax. It is time to change this unacceptable statistic by developing a good design for our residents and our city’s future.
