.@SeanFraserMP, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities makes big housing announcement at #CanadaGrowth Summit. Tomorrow, he says, “we’re actually going to be releasing our plan to solve the housing crisis in Canada.”
Fraser says: “It's going to involve a series of measures that are going to do some of the things we've talked about when it comes to reducing the cost of homebuilding.”
“We've already removed the GST — there will be more measures that make it more cost effective for builders. We're going to include some of the measures we've recently announced to help cities change the way they build homes…there's going to be support we've mentioned for home building factories, additional measures to help with the affordable housing stock in this country, and to help communities who are wrestling with challenges around homelessness.”
“And we're also going to have additional measures, including some that will be shared later today, designed to make it easier for people to get into the housing market for the first time.”
