The Province, through BC Housing, is working with local partners on a proposal to create new supportive and complex-care housing for people experiencing homelessness in North Vancouver.

Families, seniors and people living with disabilities in Saanich will soon have access to 70 new affordable rental homes as the next stage of the Nigel Valley housing redevelopment gets underway.

A new provincial funding commitment of $61 million will support local governments building capacity to meet new housing-density initiatives, including the implementation of anticipated changes to development approval processes, planning and zoning, such as small-scale multi-unit housing.

Ravi Kahlon, Minister of Housing has released the following statement in response to the Government of Canada announcing the removal of GST on new rental construction:

Families and seniors with low to moderate incomes have moved into 20 new affordable rental homes in Burnaby.

Residents of the Sperling Place Emergency Response Centre (ERC) will soon be moving into 43 units of new permanent supportive housing in the community.

BC Housing and local partners are acting on an independent review of the supportive housing and permanent shelter at 3030 Gordon Ave.
