CMHC has a huge impact on the lives of Canadians in almost every community across the country. It began in 1944 with the National Housing Act, which consolidated all housing legislation and gave the federal government a leading role in housing programs.
On January 1, 1946, the Central Housing and Mortgage Corporation was created to provide accommodation to returning war veterans and to lead the nation's housing programs.In 1979, it became Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
By the end of the 1940s, the federal government focused on a program of much-needed social and rental housing, creating a federal-provincial public housing program for low-income families, with financing costs and subsidies shared 75% by the federal government and 25% by the province.
Today, CMHC remains committed to helping Canadians get access to safe, quality, affordable homes, and making sustainable communities and cities a reality throughout the country.
