Alors que les médias et les acteurs du milieu politique ne cessent de rejeter la faute de la crise du logement sur l’immigration, Détours se propose de regarder le problème en profondeur et de remonter jusqu’aux années 1960 pour en comprendre les origines. Au micro d’Emilie Nicolas, la professeure en études urbaines Hélène Bélanger analyse les raisons de cette crise multifactorielle et démonte, brique par brique, les fondements de notre culture de la propriété. En embrassant le point de vue des locataires, premières victimes de la crise et souvent considérés avec un certain mépris, Emilie et Hélène s’attaquent de front à un enjeu qui semble parfois sans issue. En deuxième partie d’émission, elles s’intéressent à l’itinérance, visible et cachée, aboutissement de trajectoires de vie rendues plus difficiles par la crise du logement.

While the media and political actors continue to blame immigration for the housing crisis, Détours takes a deep look at the problem, going back to the 1960s to understand its origins. Emilie speaks with urban studies professor Hélène Bélanger to analyze the reasons for this multifactorial crisis. They dismantle, brick by brick, the foundations of our culture of property and embrace the point of view of tenants, the first victims of the crisis, often regarded with a certain contempt. In the second part of the show, they focus on homelessness and view it as being the outcome of life trajectories made more difficult by the housing crisis.
