Credit unions are built for communities, not short term returns. For a housing crisis that demands long-term thinking, that difference matters.

Credit unions have been helping Canadians access housing since their inception nearly 100 years ago. In the face of today's housing crisis, that legacy matters more than ever. In this episode, we meet three credit union organizations involved in the solutions lab: a niche credit union with Mennonite roots and a deep commitment to mutual aid, a values-driven investment bank wholly owned by a credit union, and Ontario's largest credit union. Built for community, not quarterly returns, credit unions may be exactly the long-term partners that community land trusts need to preserve affordable housing.
