Listen "Zoom In on Renters’ Rights"
Episode Synopsis
What if renters had a map that helped them understand their rights? In this episode of Geographical Thinking, we dive into the story behind the Tenant Policy Atlas—a one-of-a-kind tool that's putting renters, not just streets and buildings, on the map.Michelle Brake sits down with T’Brenn Kelly-McKinnon and Cameron Glover from the Rental Protection Fund to explore how this interactive atlas is making waves across BC. From eviction protections to relocation policies, the tool is designed to cut through the confusion and help tenants, advocates, and policymakers see the bigger picture—literally.Along the way, we hear why GIS is the secret weapon in the fight for affordable housing and what happens when technology meets a mission to protect homes and communities. Whether you're a map nerd, a renter, or just love a good story about using geography for good—this one's for you.
