Supporting Canadian Industry Through Housing
Each project contributes to strengthening Canadian industry.
Build Canada Homes advances the Government of Canada’s Buy Canadian policy by prioritizing Canadian materials, suppliers, and skilled labour wherever feasible.
Through its role as builder and investor, BCH creates steady, predictable demand for domestic industries—from wood products such as softwood lumber to structural materials and manufactured housing components. This demand provides clearer signals for planning, investment, and capacity growth across the housing sector.
On public land, this lens is applied consistently across projects—aligning procurement, partnerships, and delivery expectations to strengthen Canadian supply chains alongside housing delivery.

-
Prioritize Canadian-sourced materials and inputs where feasible
-
Engage Canadian manufacturers, suppliers, and skilled trades
-
Contribute to consistent demand that supports domestic production capacity
-
Apply modern construction approaches that strengthen Canadian industry
