CREA Congratulates the Liberal Party of Canada Following Election 2025
The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) congratulates Mark Carney and the Liberal Party of Canada on forming Canada’s 45th government. We also want to congratulate and thank all who put their name on a ballot and stood up to make Canada a better country.
The ballot question during this election coalesced around two competing narratives: who was best to deal with US President Donald Trump vs who was best to tackle Canada’s cost of living and affordability crisis. CREA’s advocacy successfully highlighted that the housing crisis was central to both, ensuring housing policy stayed as a top concern throughout the entire election.
The Housing Canada Coalition, of which the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) is a part of, drafted a 10-point policy blueprint aimed at ending the housing game by building a housing safety net and fixing the housing crisis.
During the election, CREA helped amplify the Housing Canada Coalition advocacy campaign, which encouraged all parties to take urgent action. Between the Housing Canada Coalition recommendations and other REALTOR® recommendations we’ve been advocating for over the past several years, we’re encouraged by the number of policy commitments that have been reflected by the major political parties.
“The need and urgency to fix Canada’s housing crisis goes beyond political stripes,” says Valérie Paquin, CREA Chair. “We continue to advocate for a vibrant and resilient housing system in Canada and look forward to working with this new government in the implementation of effective solutions that support the entire housing continuum.”
