REALTOR® Recommendations
Every Canadian deserves the opportunity to live in a home they can afford. We empower REALTOR® activism on behalf of Canadians.
Written Submission for the Pre-Budget Consultations in Advance of the 2024 Federal Budget
By working together we can build a national, holistic approach to create more housing options and ensure Canada remains a fair and equitable place to live for all Canadians. This nationwide holistic approach would provide opportunities to address supply issues across the housing spectrum, helping the most vulnerable while simultaneously allowing more Canadians to gain stability and opportunity through homeownership, particularly low- and middle-income families.
National Housing Roundtable
Establish a permanent national housing roundtable to bring together housing stakeholders to help address the housing crisis through an inclusive, holistic approach emphasizing collaboration, innovation, and policy coordination.
Housing Supply and Infrastructure
Leverage federal infrastructure funding with municipal, provincial, and territorial partners requiring the creation of more housing supply.
Review Financialization of Housing
Commission an in-depth review of the financialization of housing in Canada to develop evidence-based measures that will help protect the rights of Canadians.
Climate and Housing
Institute a cost-free, phased approach for EnerGuide labelling of homes, not at time of sale.
Immigration and Housing
Develop a housing workforce immigration strategy to attract skilled trade workers from abroad, which includes streamlining the immigration process for qualified professionals willing to work in the construction industry.
