In September 2019 the government introduced a plan where prospective home buyers can finance 5-10% of their mortgage via a shared equity program administered by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). Households who make $120K or less and put down 5% will qualify for the program which will cost an estimated $1.25 billion.

Yes, but money should be focused to the families that have a low 'combined' income
@9TPPX3Q3mos3MO
No, but massively increase home building, make it illegal for corporations to buy residential properties and tax individuals owning >1 residential property at 50% the value of every non-residence property annually.
@9RC6QJK4mos4MO
No, the government should limit the number of homes that can be bought by a single person or corporation
@9DZJPLN1yr1Y
Yes, only for first time home buyers
@9KBFTYW 9mos9MO
No, but the system of home building and purchasing needs to be regulated or reformed so that the current inflationary, predatory lending, and artificial pricing needs to stop.
@8TVYS423yrs3Y
No, government should encourage denser housing construction, penalize multiple ownership, and ban foreign buyers.
@9ZXM9KL23hrs23H
I think that based on the persons circumstances should determine whether or not the government subsidizes home buyers.
