The Housing Supply Challenge (HSC) invites citizens, stakeholders, and experts from across Canada to propose innovative solutions to the barriers that limit the creation of new housing. $300 million in funding is available through the various rounds of the Challenge, resulting in new ideas and solutions that will help more people find an affordable place to call home.
The challenge objectives are to:

  *   Address barriers to housing supply and affordability
  *   Enhance community engagement
  *   Inspire others to scale or adapt ideas for “Canada-wide impact”
  *   Cultivate collaboration and partnerships

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation has identified some of the key issues and trends affecting housing supply in Canada, which shaped the development of the various rounds of the Challenge.  Consultations with stakeholders and experts improved our understanding of these issues, which include:

  *   Supporting urban densification
  *   Enhancing productivity in construction
  *   Improving data on land availability and value
  *   Reducing building timelines and approval processes
  *   Addressing land availability constraints
  *   Expanding flexible tenure options
  *   Aligning transport infrastructure and housing
  *   Conflicting incentives for creation of new supply
