Canada Still Isn’t Building Enough Homes | Life is unpredictable. It’s important to be prepared. Having the correct plan & Coverage will give you peace of mind.

Despite some recent improvements in affordability, Canada is still not building homes at the pace needed to keep up with demand. Currently, we’re seeing around 250,000 new homes built each year—well below the 400,000 to 470,000 homes experts say are needed annually to restore affordability and address the existing backlog. Over the past decade, our population has grown much faster than our housing supply, leading to a gap that can’t be closed overnight, even with a surge in new construction. It’s no wonder that about 80% of Canadians feel the housing system isn’t working, and roughly 75% believe too few homes are being built. In my work throughout West Toronto, I see firsthand how these numbers play out in real people’s lives—families searching longer, buyers feeling squeezed, and renters facing limited options. While policy and market shifts are on the horizon, pent-up demand is likely to resurface when consumer confidence returns, keeping housing front and center in Canada’s political landscape. Navigating these challenges takes more than market knowledge—it requires experience in construction, negotiation, and a commitment to guiding you through every step. My goal remains to help you make informed decisions and to provide peace of mind, no matter the climate.
