Abstract

Key Messages A low‐income corridor follows the SkyTrain rapid transit line through Vancouver and its suburbs, containing subsidized rental housing from long‐terminated federal programs. The housing is aging and is occupied by poorer groups, notably recently landed refugees and immigrants. This housing is endangered by gentrification from a regional policy of transit‐oriented development (TOD), a policy where environmental objectives and profitability trump social justice objectives.
