Welcome to Season 2, Episode 3, of The Life of a Servant.
In this episode, Member of Parliament for Parry Sound-Muskoka, Scott Aitchison, and Bala Legion President, Dennis Mills, talk about the need for affordable housing in Bala, Ontario. They describe a community-planned solution that would provide assisted living to people over the age of 55. The plans are in place. The community partners are totally supported. Shovels could be in the ground in a matter months, with affordable housing solutions open and operating less than a year after that.

You'll also hear several practical and passionate suggestions from Scott Aitchison, who not only serves as a highly distinguished Parliamentarian, but whose work exemplifies what it means to be a servant-leader.
