In this first episode of Voices of Burnaby, Mayor Mike Hurley sits down with Andy Yan, Director of the City Program at Simon Fraser University and one of Canada’s leading voices on housing and urban planning.

They discuss the impact of recent provincial zoning legislation, what thoughtful city planning should look like, the responsibilities of each level of government, how infrastructure keeps pace with growth, and why true affordability requires more than simply adding density.
