Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation says all levels of government, organizations and the private sector need to work together to solve housing challenges.
The annual report said 2021 was a difficult year for Canadians, especially racialized and Indigenous people who struggled to find suitable housing they could afford.
It said others were displaced by extreme climate events. Housing affordability remains a top concern for all Canadians and for the federal government.
Nearly one-third of all new investments in the 2022 federal budget are for housing, mainly building on the success of the National Housing Strategy (NHS).
