Abstract
The nature and size of the Canadian building market and its linkages with the other sectors are described to demonstrate its importance to the economy as a whole. Factors ( Economic, demographic, external, technological, etc) and development policies of the federal government affecting the building market in Canada are analyzed. It is observed that the building market in Canada has been relatively weak in the past 10 years and it is expected to be so in the future. The development policies of the federal government and technological factors have had no major impact on the size of the building market.
