Description

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) reported a 16% fall in the total monthly seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR) of housing starts in August 2025, indicating a slowdown in the pace of housing construction across Canada. The slowdown is consistent with forecasts and current market intelligence. Regional variations exist, with some cities like Montreal and Calgary seeing increases, while Toronto and Edmonton experience declines. Persistent barriers include rising construction costs, high development charges, tariff-related disruptions, and limited municipal infrastructure.
