The evolution of the housing industry in Canada, 1946-86 / prepared by Clayton Research Associates and Scanada Consultants. : NH15-40/1-1990E-PDF

"This working paper presents the results of an investigation of the industry producing new housing, developing serviced residential land and renovating the existing housing stock in Canada. It examines the industry's current structure (the number and size of firms), its methods of operation, the financial aspects of its constituent firms and the manner in which the housing industry has changed over the past 40 years. The paper focuses on the responses to the following two questions: What is the housing industry like today, and how does it differ from the industry operating in the immediate era after the Second World War? What factors contributed to the changes that occurred during the postwar period?"--Introd., p. 1
