A Vision for Housing

🌄 A Vision for Housing: Success vs. Failure

As Build Canada Homes moves forward, the stakes are high. Here’s a vision of what life could look like depending on whether the program succeeds or fails. ⚖️

If BCH Fails ❌

  • 🏚️ Homelessness continues to rise, especially among social assistance recipients.
  • 💸 “Affordable” housing remains out of reach for most Canadians.
  • 🏢 Modular and mass timber units may be built, but rents are too high to make a difference.
  • ⚠️ Inequality widens, social tension grows, and communities struggle to keep residents housed.

If BCH Succeeds ✅

  • 🏡 People on social assistance have access to safe, dignified housing.
  • 💰 Income-based rents ensure everyone pays what they can afford.
  • ⚡ Tiny homes, modular units, and innovative construction methods deliver housing fast and efficiently.
  • 🌱 Communities thrive with supportive services, shared spaces, and sustainable housing.
  • 💛 Canadians feel lifted up, not left behind, and inequality begins to shrink.

Why This Matters

Build Canada Homes is more than a construction program — it’s a chance to create a **future where all Canadians have a home**. Your voice, advocacy, and engagement can help guide it toward success. 🗣️

Take action: Share your experiences, ask questions, and push for inclusive policies. Together, we can ensure housing is truly affordable, accessible, and dignified for everyone. 💛
