2015 Newsmaker of the Year:
Affordability “Families renting homes in Vancouver deserve a better option than paying palace-sized rents on postage stamp [sized] apartments. Yes, rising prices are a consequence of growth and prosperity. Affordability is a non-stop challenge in a city like ours. But that doesn’t mean we have to allow working and middle-class families to be priced out of town.” —Mayor Gregor Robertson, at his inaugural address last December
