Building One Million Affordable Homes

There's been lots of talk about nation-building and building infrastructure to help businesses grow the economy. 

‍

What about building housing to help Canadians grow the economy? What about building housing that meets the needs of low to middle income Canadians who are struggling the most?

‍

In Summer 2024, we launched the Five Ways Home Campaign. Action 4 states "Invest Heavily in non-Market Affordable Housing."

‍

On September 3rd, we sent a letter to the Federal Housing Minister outlining what actions the Feds could take to build one million units of non-market housing and why this should be a nation-building project.

‍

We believe building one million homes for low to middle income Canadians should be a priority nation-building project that is vital to growing our economy, will protect us from the economic uncertainty we're facing and help Canadians directly.
