Quick Glance: Canada's Ambitious Housing Plan to Address Crisis
- Canada plans to build nearly 3.9 million houses by 2031 under a new federal initiative to tackle the housing crisis.
- The plan, falling short by almost a third compared to projections, is expected to dominate the upcoming federal budget.
- With no direct role in construction, Ottawa must rely on policy measures and funding to ensure partners respond to the housing shortage.
- The measures include proposals to extend low-cost loans, utilize federal land for rapid house construction, and combat mortgage fraud inflating housing costs.
