Alain Bertaud’s Vancouver Visit
At former Vancouver Mayor Sam Sullivan’s invitation, Senior Fellow Alain Bertaud made several appearances and interviews, including:
- Public Salon: “Alain Bertaud On Vancouver”
- Vancouver Sun: “Conversations That Matter: How Markets Shape Cities”
- Daily Hive Urbanized: “Metro Vancouver’s Urban Planning Considerations Need to Prioritize Urban Economics, Says Renowned Planner”
- The Hub: “Vancouver ‘Cannot Complain’ About High Home Prices While Limiting Development, French Urbanist Says”
And City Journal published the English version of “What Is Wrong with Henry George-Type Taxation?” where Bertaud writes:
The periodic recycling of land by the users themselves is a vital mechanism. It submits cities in market economies to a Darwinian process as they adapt to changing economic conditions and technologies. But some forms of land taxation could inadvertently hinder land recycling.
