Sudbury Receives 73 Million to Build 347 Homes

"I am pleased that the Manitou Project is moving forward and will provide much-needed housing options in Greater Sudbury". Paul Lefebvre Mayor of Greater Sudbury on the support of construction of 347 homes in Sudbury.

The federal government announced over $73 million in funding through the Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) – a key pillar of the federal government's National Housing Strategy – to support the construction of 347 homes for those in need in Greater Sudbury.

The announcement was made by Viviane Lapointe, Member of Parliament for Sudbury, alongside Marc G. Serré, Member of Parliament for Nickel Belt and Paul Lefebvre, Mayor of Greater Sudbury.

Located at 302 Van Horne Street, the Manitou building will offer the community's most vulnerable citizens, including seniors and women and their children, a place to call their own. Once complete, it will have a social services office staffed with social workers and psychologists to support the residents.

"Through the Affordable Housing Fund, our government is investing in much needed affordable housing here in Sudbury and across the country. The funding announced today, along with other local investments, is another critical step to ensure that all residents have access to the housing they need and deserve." – Marc G. Serré, MP for Nickel Belt, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Official Language 

This project, which is expected to be completed by the Fall of 2026, includes:

  • $3 million in funding and $70 million as a repayable loan through the Affordable Housing Fund.
  • Over $6 million in cash equity and $2 million in land equity from Caneagle, the proponent organization.

Investments like this aim to address housing needs, improve living conditions and well being for families and individuals, while building inclusive communities for Greater Sudbury citizens.


"I am pleased that the Manitou Project is moving forward and will provide much-needed housing options in Greater Sudbury. With a focus on accessible design features, affordable units, and on-site services for residents, this project is tailored to meet the unique housing needs of our aging population. I thank our federal partners for their investment and ongoing support as we work together to fill housing gaps in our community." – Paul Lefebvre, Mayor of Greater Sudbury
