COST OF LIVING
Commitment 3.1.1 – We will continue to implement northern solutions for northern housing by:
Creating a comprehensive and fully-costed plan to reduce core need.
Regular members are requesting that the Government of the Northwest Territories provide a plan to bring core housing need down to national levels.
The NWTHC developed a fully costed report titled Towards Level Ground: Addressing Persistent Core Need in the Northwest Territories. The report provides context on the scale of what would be required to achieve this goal in the short-term as well as an action plan based on planned NWTHC activities.
Towards Level Ground: Addressing Persistent Core Need in the Northwest Territories was tabled in the house on October 20, 2017.
