How to read this

Figures come from Statistics Canada's Monthly Survey of Building Permits (SDDS 2802), Table 34-10-0292-01: construction intentions at authorization. They are not CMHC starts or completions, and not dollars actually spent. Releases typically land about six weeks after the reference month; prior months revise.

Read year-over-year permit value beside residential units and the residential share. Value tracks capital intentions and can rise with construction costs even when unit counts are flat. Units are the cleaner signal for housing supply. Prefer multi-month or calendar-year totals; one large project can dominate a single month. Direct means a municipal or CMA breakout; regional means the enclosing metro may misstate this city alone.

Pair this page with CMHC starts when you care about homes actually underway, and with local permit portals when you need faster street-level detail. Method detail: methodology.
