Update: 2025-09-26
Description
In this episode of the Toronto Real Estate Podcast, Ralph Fox & Kori Marin take a deep dive into the newly announced Build Canada Homes program.Touted as a bold solution to Canada’s housing affordability crisis, the program has already raised eyebrows with its $13B upfront cost, $3.5B annual spend, and a staged press conference that left many Canadians skeptical.BREAKDOWN:
- What was promised vs. what’s actually happening
- Why this program may be more photo op than housing solution
- How it ties into Canada’s declining GDP per capita, productivity crisis, and youth unemployment
- What rental-only housing means for the dream of homeownership
- Alternatives and policies that could actually move the needle on affordability
This is about more than housing - it’s about Canada’s economic future.
