In 2017, The Canadian government announced that it would allocate C$40 billion (US$31.6 billion) to a national housing plan to alleviate the severe lack of affordable housing. This includes building 100,000 affordable housing units, repairing another 300,000 social units that already exist and reducing homelessness by 50%.

No. Cut the red tape and keep costs of industry down to prevent the rapid increase in housing prices and labour.
@9F72NGV2yrs2Y
Yes, but to house the homeless and less fortunate and not at the expense of farmland and green space
@9GH2KFF1yr1Y
The government should stop constructing housing and leave the work for private companies. If you can't afford to construct your own house it's because you don't contribute enough to society.
@9G526GQ2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as the money is used to make housing cheaper for person residential use and not for rentals
@9F46VRB2yrs2Y
The government should have nothing to do with the housing market. Give it to private construction companies, but make them have a contract that they have to build so many houses a year, and have a decent market price set and let the rate either go up or down from there.
@9C7D8F92yrs2Y
Yes but to help the middle class and the homeless and stop bringing in all these immigrants taking over our homes 🏠

To support with providing affordable housing to people. Housing should be occupied.
@9983HDG2yrs2Y
they should just repair or rebuild homes that already excist and should NOT expand to farmland and greenlands by any means. this also includes wetlands and parks.
@98M347G2yrs2Y
Use all that living space available to house the homeless but not at the expense of our farmland and forests.
