He also believes in putting people before politics, and that's why we're happy to have him on the show.

Mike also offers some sage advice for councillors who want to do more in order to help the environment at the provincial level, such as making better land use planning decisions, increasing housing supply and addressing housing affordability.   Join Andy and Mike for this fascinating and eye-opening discussion.
