Meeting Ottawa’s aggressive housing construction goals will require more than $300 billion in additional financing each year until 2030, according to a new report from the Fraser Institute.
The study highlighted the scale of investment needed to address Canada’s housing affordability crisis and the challenge of securing the necessary capital.
