The federal government has launched Build Canada Homes (BCH), aimed at increasing affordable housing supply across Canada, promising up to 45,000 factory-built homes. However, BCH's efforts might fall short of the long-term need of 4.8 million new homes by 2035. The initiative focuses on non-market housing and partnerships, but lacks details for middle-class affordability and urban land access. Proposed policy changes include incentives for densification and Canadian-made materials, extending tax rebates, and allowing modular construction self-certification to facilitate housing development.
