Integration of Canada Lands Company into Build Canada Homes

In September 2025, the Government of Canada announced the integration of Canada Lands Company into Build Canada Homes to bring its land portfolio and expertise under one roof to support the delivery of housing at scale.

This integration brings together a national portfolio of public lands, deep expertise in land development, and more than 30 years of experience transforming federal properties into complete communities.

Build Canada Homes and
Village at Griesbach

Village at Griesbach is an established, walkable neighbourhood with a range of housing, tree-lined streets, parks, lakes, trails, schools and local amenities.

Build Canada Homes now carries this work forward, with a focus on advancing the remaining phases of development and creating additional housing opportunities. New development will respect Griesbach’s established character, green spaces and approved development vision.
