CALGARY — Alberta is spending an extra $16 million to fix up aging government-owned affordable housing units to make them inhabitable once again.
Social Services Minister Jason Nixon says the money is on top of the $94 million already allocated in this year’s budget.Nixon says the government is working with housing providers to identify which units should get priority.
“Since 2019, we've already invested nearly $700 million in housing and built more than 4,600 units of housing.” “Nearly 700,000 Albertans spend more than 30 per cent of their income on housing alone,” said Adamson. Earlier Wednesday, Opposition NDP housing critic Janis Irwin said the UCP government is failing Albertans on housing and on affordability.
