Russell Mawby Saskatoon russell.mawby [at] city.saskatoon.sk.ca is the author of the message below but due to a problem it was posted by the Fred the list manager: owner-cohousing-L [at] cohousing.org ******************** FORWARDED MESSAGE FOLLOWS *********************** I agree that this moment in the sun can and will help define the public understanding of cohousing, and so I'd like to ask that the International nature of cohousing be reinforced - ie., it's in Canada too! And in an innovative way, vis a vis Windsong... And I'd like to add that the cohousing idea is being applied here and a few other places in replacement of more conventional thinking about housing, in particular in dealing with affordable housing provision - we have convinced the Provincial Government that providing four walls and a roof is not enough - especially for low-income households, and so we are just now embarking on a sort of retro-fit cohousing project where community amenities are understood as being essential to the success of the overall project - with some funding to help achieve it.
