    • 1. The homeownership trajectories of recent immigrants
      Articles and reports: 46-28-0001202600100002
      Description: This article examines homeownership among recent immigrants to Canada and their pathways leading up to homeownership. It combines information from the Canadian Housing Statistics Program on homeowners in seven provinces—Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and British Columbia—with immigration data for individuals that were admitted as permanent residents between 2017 and 2021. This is the second in a series of articles published in Housing Statistics in Canada investigating homeownership among newcomers to Canada.

    • 4. Owned Accommodation in the Canadian Consumer Price Index: A Comparative Analysis of Measurement Approaches, Including an Exploration of Asking-Rent Rental Equivalence
      Articles and reports: 62F0014M2026004
      Description: In collaboration with the Bank of Canada, this research paper extends previous work on alternative approaches to measuring owned accommodation (OA) in the Canadian Consumer Price Index (CPI), with a particular focus on rental equivalence (RE). The analysis constructs analytical price index series for Canada using the main OA measurement concepts proposed in the International Consumer Price Index Manual and widely adopted internationally. The study examines how OA and the all-items CPI may have evolved from 2004 to 2025 under different methodologies. The inclusion of asking-rent–based RE measures aims to better capture secondary rental market dynamics and provide more timely insights into how rent movements affect OA and the all-items CPI.

    • 7. Renters’ shelter costs by duration of tenancy
      Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202500800003
      Description: Renters’ shelter costs can vary substantially by duration of tenancy. Renters who recently moved into their dwelling can pay substantially more than longstanding renters. This tenure-based discrepancy in rents paid can have important implications in terms of affordability and residential mobility. This study sheds light on trends in shelter cost differences by duration of tenancy from 1996 to 2021, and how this gap in rental costs between recent renters and longer-term renters varies across municipalities and neighbourhoods.
