5.8 million — that’s the number of new homes Canada needs to build by 2030 to ensure affordable housing for everyone, according to the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Mass timber buildings can expedite this process, reducing construction time by up to 20 per cent compared to concrete structures. Canada, as a pioneer in the timber construction industry, has completed 689 mass timber projects to date, with 76 under construction and 67 in the planning stages.
