Real estate is more important to the Canadian economy than you think. Here’s why. youtu.be/C8Ui82hgXRk

Our housing system is an unfair game stacked against Canadians. As part of the Housing Canada Coalition alongside @CAEHomelessness, @HabitatCanada, and @CHRA_ACHRU, we’ve launched an advocacy campaign that aims to protect Canadians and build a housing system that works for everyone. Are you ready to #EndTheHousingGame this federal election? endthehousinggame.ca/crea-signup

Congratulations to MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith on becoming Canada’s new Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities. We look forward to working with @beynate to continue productive conversations and collaborate on solutions to address Canada's housing crisis for the entire continuum.

REALTORS® from across the country have arrived in the nation’s capital, ready to share our REALTOR® Recommendations to addressing Canada’s #HousingCrisis. Here’s what we’re advocating for: ✔️ Stimulate supply across the housing continuum by embracing innovation through offsite construction technologies. ✔️ Establish a permanent mechanism to collaborate and coordinate housing policy and development. ✔️HST/GST relief for non-profit-built affordable ownership housing. PAC Reps, get ready for an exciting few days filled with MP meetings, panel discussions, a tiny home hunt, and keynotes. Don’t forget to share and tag us in your photos using #CREAPAC24. creacafe.ca/your-guide-to-…

We’re super excited to welcome Canadian comedian @ShaunMajumder to #CREAPAC24! He’ll be blending humour and insights to share his bumpy road from rags, to riches, to rags again.

🚨 Don’t miss @TheRickWilson, political strategist and co-founder of @ProjectLincoln, live at #CREAPAC24! Wilson’s insights will help PAC Reps better understand the stakes of the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election and its potential impacts in Canada.

We applaud today’s release of “Canada’s Housing Plan” – the federal government’s comprehensive, multi-pronged approach to addressing Canada’s housing crisis. The scope and ambition of this plan is encouraging, as is the first articulation of a “systems” approach to housing and home building – through skills, financing, home building methods, reducing approval barriers, and infrastructure tied to housing. Many measures announced today reflect positions REALTORS® have been supporting for years as part of our ongoing advocacy efforts, including the: ⏺ “Team Canada” approach to working across all levels of government and with industry partners; ⏺ focus on increasing housing supply and addressing affordability across the continuum; ⏺ tying of federal infrastructure funding to housing outcomes; ⏺ emphasis on housing innovations; ⏺ plan to attract and support the skilled workforce to build homes; and ⏺ measures to help first-time home buyers enter the market. We look forward to reading more details in the 2024 Federal Budget on Tuesday, April 16, 2024. infrastructure.gc.ca/housing-logeme… #cdnpoli @JustinTrudeau @cafreeland @SeanFraserMP

.@CREA_ACI proud to support the great work @CHRA_ACHRU does to bring leaders from across the Canadian housing sector community together. #housing #cdnpoli

Great to hear Mark Carney talk about the importance of building six million new homes over the next decade for the future prosperity of Canada! @CREA_ACI #Canada2020 #cdnpoli

At @BCREA's GL Days @dilpuar, CREA’s Government Relations Director, discussed Canada's housing challenges. From affordability to changing landscapes, Puar shed light on obstacles, particularly for aspiring millennial homeowners. #BCREAAdvocacy #HousingInsights

We are encouraged by the unprecedented emphasis on housing supply in the federal government's 2023 Fall Economic Statement. budget.canada.ca/fes-eea/2023/h… 1/3

We welcome the measures aimed at enhancing existing housing programs, as well as increasing supply across the housing continuum through new initiatives. 2/3

We will continue to monitor the implementation of these commitments and will continue to encourage an ambitious approach to increasing the supply of home in all its forms for Canadians. #FES2023 #cdnpoli 3/3

Loved sharing my talk on “the politics of scarcity” with extensive polling data my awesome team at @abacusdataca has collected and analyzed at @Empire_Club this evening in Toronto. Thanks to @CREA_ACI for working with us on the housing study.
