Guiding Principles

Homelessness:

  • Is a crisis
  • Is a symptom of

underlying causes

  • Requires a systems-

based approach

  • Is not just an urban

issue

  • Is easier to prevent

than reverse

  • Is related to

affordability, but is not just about affordability

  • Is a national issue
  • Requires coordinated

and targeted heath services

  • Requires careful

tailoring of responses to reflect different needs

Regional Prosperity Initiative

PROGRESS TO DATE Greg Moore

CHAIR, METRO VANCOUVER BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Council of Councils – April 29, 2017

slide-77
SLIDE 77

A lack of a collaborative, strategic approach to regional prosperity sets our region apart compared to many other metropolitan areas across North America. The intent of the Regional Prosperity Initiative is to create a new regional organization bringing together business, academic and civic leaders in taking action to enhance the region’s prosperity.

Dynamics of Economic Change in Metro Vancouver

  • Since Expo a new metropolitan economy has

emerged

  • Economic prospects are enhanced by

characteristics of the region

  • These prospects are limited – primarily the serious

mismatch between housing prices and incomes

  • Conclusion: A dynamic, sustainable and high wage

economy is within our grasp if we adopt a more effective and collaborative approach to dealing with the fundamentals of metropolitan prosperity
