| Summary |
"This monograph is the result of a project first conceived at Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation in the early 1980s. The idea was to commission a pair of monographs, one on the housing industry (Clayton Research Associates Limited 1988) and the other - this volume - on progress in the housing of Canadians. The purposes of this monograph were: to benchmark the evolution of housing in Canada since 1945, to address important dimensions of the current and future housing situation, to identify housing research issues and priorities in Canada over the mid to long term, and to identify important housing policy issues likely to emerge in Canada over the mid to long term"--Prologue, p. 1 |
