The Government of Canada, through Build Canada Homes (BCH), and the Ismaili Council for Canada announced a Memorandum of Understanding that will establish a framework for collaboration to identify, assess, and advance housing initiatives that will help build more homes Canadians can afford.
Today, the Honourable Anita Anand, Minister of Foreign Affairs, joined His Highness the Aga Khan in Vancouver to announce that the Government of Canada, through BCH, will kick-off a partnership aimed at delivering over 1,250 rental homes, including affordable rental units, across British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec.
Projects being advanced under the partnership are expected to be delivered through the Generations model, a community-based approach that integrates affordable, multi-generational housing with services and amenities that support residents throughout different stages of life.
The partnership builds on the shared commitment outlined in the Joint Declaration issued by Prime Minister Mark Carney and His Highness the Aga Khan in March 2026, which highlighted the importance of partnerships in supporting the development of more homes, faster, while fostering comprehensive and inclusive communities.
