In my new role at Dal Legal Aid, I’ve been thinking a lot about evictions lately. And what I’ve been finding is that there is a dearth of data in Canada about the level and nature of evictions in Canada. This podcast episode is all about what we *do* know…(it’s not great)

This is such an excellent and perceptive essay on the politics of AI. Historicization and politicization in one package. Highly recommended!
