What they're lobbying on (4)
  • Reform income verification rules to reflect how Canadians actually earn money. The Office of the Superintendent of Real Estate (OSFI) should set clear rules so lenders can verify and count real income, however it's earned, so self-employed, contract and multi-source borrowers aren't forced into a paycheque-shaped box.
  • Expand Mortgage Loan Insurance to address middle housing supply and ownership options. Add a fourth scoring category to MLI Select for missing middle rental supply, and establish a new sibling program, MLI Select-Ownership, applying the same proven points-based model to ownership-tenured housing, with a mandatory pillar for missing middle supply.
  • Launch a National Housing Strategy 2.0 focused on housing choice and homeownership. The Strategy should include a national goal of restoring attainable homeownership through missing housing, and address the full range of housing issues, from ending homelessness to rebuilding the pathway to homeownership.
  • Foreign Buyer Ban Called for the federal government to exempt several major ski resort communities in the province from 2022’s Prohibition on the Purchase of Residential Property by Non-Canadians Act
