Federal election underway: Four easy ways to help the Vote Housing campaign

Published August 19, 2021

On Sunday, Prime Minister Trudeau announced that a federal election would be held on September 20^th.

CHF Canada is ready, together with an unprecedented coalition of organizations and individuals, to ensure the next federal government prioritizes affordable housing, including co-ops, and ending homelessness under the banner of Vote Housing.

The Vote Housing Nanos Research poll shows public opinion is with us: 84% Canadians support investing in building new affordable housing, and nearly 8 in 10 Canadians say they would be more, or somewhat more, supportive of a political party proposing such measures. It also showed the urgency of this issue, with 1 in 3 renters worried about paying their rent next month alone.

Here’s what you can do to help add to the Vote Housing momentum:

1. Share our poll results, poll graphics, Tweet and/or Facebook post
2. If you haven’t already, join our campaign with a pledge to Vote Housing
3. If you live in a co-op, have your co-op endorse the campaign
4. Encourage your family, friends and neighbours to support Vote Housing.

Together we can make this election about housing!
