Federal Budget Submission 2025
Budget 2024 failed to make sufficient investments in social housing. Based on results from previous rounds of Rapid Housing funding, Budget 2024’s investment is expected to generate less than 5,000 social housing units – a mere 10% of the annual need. This budgetary choice will leave the lowest income households in Canada behind. We are calling on the Government of Canada to invest in the non-market sector in Budget 2025 so that those in greatest need can afford a safe and adequate place to live.
