On this episode of Building Toronto's Skyline, Nick Ainis speaks with Member of Parliament Jennifer McKelvie who is the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Housing and Infrastructure.
Nick and Jennifer discuss the Liberal housing plan that promises to create Build Canada Homes (BCH) to get the federal government back into the business of home building, by:
- acting as a developer to build affordable housing at scale, including on public lands.
- catalyzing the housing industry by providing over $25 billion in financing to innovative prefabricated home builders in Canada, including those using Canadian technologies and resources like mass timber and softwood lumber, to build faster, smarter, more affordably, and more sustainably.
- providing $10 billion in low-cost financing and capital to affordable home builders.
