About this listen
A January 2026 Senate report called housing "Out of Reach." We look at the report and cover the rental market squeeze, development charges, and regulatory delays that are driving up housing costs across Canada
- Toronto housing fees are staggering: New homes in Toronto carry approximately $200,000 in municipal fees, compared to under $10,000 in cities like Moncton or Charlottetown.
- Approval timelines are crippling supply: It takes an average of 11 years to get a new housing development approved and built from start to finish in some Canadian cities.
- Rental market reforms are coming: The Senate report recommends incentivizing rental construction through tax breaks, preserving affordable units, and potentially restricting institutional investors from buying up residential rentals
