Canada Sees Building Construction Slow in September
Statistics Canada reports that in September, investment in Canadian building construction fell by 1.1% to $22.4 billion. This decline was largely driven by a 1.7% drop in residential sector investment, while non-residential investment remained nearly unchanged. Despite the monthly dip, total investment grew 6.0% year-over-year.
On a constant dollar basis (2023=100), investment totaled $20.7 billion, reflecting a 1.4% monthly decrease, but still a 2.3% increase year-over-year.

Recently presented at the Ontario Building Trades Annual Convention in Windsor, the new report highlights that while most tradeswomen are committed to long-term careers in the industry, systemic barriers including harassment, lack of appropriate washroom facilities, limited childcare options, and underrepresentation in leadership roles, continue to affect recruitment and retention.
