Synopsis
BC Municipal Affairs and Housing Minister Selina Robinson - who is also responsible for TransLink, Metro Vancouver's transit authority - shares her story of how she got into politics, that squeaker of a first BC election she ran in (where she actually *lost* on election night), and why it's so important for women to be at the decision-making table in government. Of course, we also dig into the housing crisis (and some of the solutions), and where things are at with transit investments in the Metro Vancouver region. Then, Lesli and Maria talk about that controversial, anti-immigrant op-ed that ran in the Vancouver Sun, and how it raised serious questions (including from the Sun's own journalists) about how op-eds are solicited and selected by editors.
