Canada has a national housing crisis. If we don’t do something about it, the economic turmoil caused by the U.S Administration’s trade war is going to make it worse. 

There are already 1.7 million households in need of housing in Canada right now, and more than half of Canadians are worried about losing their home if their financial situation changes. 

We can’t necessarily predict how President Trump will act, so our country needs to take initiative to secure our future and protect our neighbours with a strong housing safety net.

The Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness, the Canadian Real Estate Association, Habitat for Humanity and the Canadian Housing and Renewal Association have all come together to release a new policy platform that outlines how our next government can both respond to the immediate housing crisis and build resiliency for the future. That plan is called ‘Housing Canada: A Sovereign Plan to Protect Canadians and Build a Resilient Housing System.’

But we need your help to make sure politicians hear about our plan and take action. 

No matter what happens in the world, every Canadian deserves a place to call home.
