Federal housing minister cancels funding announcement amid development cost changes
Description
September 27, 2023
Canada's housing minister cancelled a funding announcement with two Lower Mainland cities, in light of a proposed cost increase on new building construction. The increases are meant to pay for new water and liquid waste infrastructure but would also made it more expensive to build new homes.
