Invitation to LVT- Meet Up Victoria
Description:
BC is one of the most resource rich jurisdictions on the planet. Why is it that nobody can afford to live there? There is a lasting solution to this painful paradox that few recognize or acknowledge. The inaugural LVT - Meet Up in Victoria will make a deep dive into cutting the Gordian knot of why increasing wealth always seems to be accompanied by greater inequality and impoverishment.
