The announcement was made last week by the Honourable Bill McKnight, federal Min- ister responsible for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, and the Honorable Alvin Curling, Minister of Housing for Ontario. Under the new federal-provincial housing program, almost 6,700 apartments and town- houses have been allocated in more than 50 municipalities across Ontario for 1986. Proposals for the construction of more than 20,000 units were received from across the province. The Ontario Ministry of Housing awarded allocations on the basis of demon- strated need, and the probability of beginning construction in 1986. New fed/ prov program funds construction of 34 housing units locally Curling stressed that the approved projects in Ontario are expected to generate close to one-third of a billion dollars worth of economic activity in the building industry, and more than 15,000 person-years of employment.
