The number of single-family housing starts in Canada in 2021 decreased by 881 units in comparison to the previous year. This follows after a severe drop from 2017 to 2019, and a peak in 2021. However, construction starts increased again in 2020, despite the government measures that were implemented to contain the spread of COVID-19. New home construction in Canada overall followed a similar trend during that period.
