University Of Montreal: Neighbouring City

Community Organizer Dept: The University of Montreal plans to build the student campus in the neighbouring city of Outremont, with the first phase of construction slated to begin this spring at a cost of $120 million, according to CBC. "We worry that the roughly 10,000 students who come ... will be intrigued by the cheap rents in the area and drive out the families who can't afford to live anywhere else," he said and some people living in Parc Extension worry houses and apartments in the Montreal neighbourhood are on their way to becoming unaffordable thanks to a new university campus that will be built nearby. 'I'm not sure gentrification can be stopped, in some ways it's like gravity.' Sasha Dyck, community organizer Sasha Dyck, who works for a citizens' group in Parc Extension, said the influx of students could lead to higher housing costs. As reported in the news.
