Province Introducing Legislation to Build Homes and Infrastructure Faster

October 30, 2025

Our government is delivering on our plan to Protect Ontario’s economy and keep workers on the job by cutting red tape, getting shovels in the ground faster, and supporting the construction of homes, roads and infrastructure.

We are building on the foundation we laid with the Building Faster and Smarter Act by continuing to reduce cost and time it takes to build, working with municipal leaders and homebuilders to fight delays and regulatory burdens.

Our proposed legislation also improves the speed and fairness of Landlord and Tenant Board processes by limiting bad actors from abusing the system, protecting balance between the rights of landlords and tenants, and encouraging landlords to bring more rental housing online.

At the same time, we’re advancing bold policies to tackle gridlock and keep people and goods moving by prohibiting the reduction of vehicle lanes when municipalities install new bike lanes.

Our legislation also cracks down on fraud by strengthening eligibility requirements in Ontario’s driver’s licencing system.

Together, these measures Protect Ontario’s economic competitiveness, keep workers on the job, and help build the homes, road and infrastructure our province needs for long-term stability, resiliency and prosperity.
