What does CMHC do?
CMHC's raison d'être is to make housing affordable for all in Canada. We know that housing allows people to keep their jobs, to be more successful in school and to participate more fully in society. Housing affordability and the stability of the housing finance system provide the foundation for a strong and secure Canada where everyone lives with dignity.
Affordable housing for all is an ambitious goal, and we can not do it alone. We harness the know-how and energy of governments, non-profit organizations, lenders, developers, social entrepreneurs and co-ops to shape the future of this sector. Canada's first ever National Housing Strategy is a good example. Together, we remove barriers and make sure no one is left behind.
