They explore growing economic insecurity across generations, the shifting base of progressive politics—from blue-collar workers to white-collar professionals—and AI's disruptive impact. In the second half, they turn to the federal and B.C. provincial government's controversial plan to purchase unsold condos. They examine whether this constitutes a developer bailout, as well as the political tensions at the heart of housing affordability debates.
