Housing Policy Conference, June 13, 2008
At the CFAA Housing Policy Conference on June 13, 2008, in Saint John, New Brunswick, rental housing providers heard about:
property tax regimes for rental housing across Canada,
existing Canadian provincial housing allowance programs and a program of portable housing allowances which could be adopted in Atlantic Canada, including cost estimates

Tax Policy Conference, June 8, 2007
CFAA held its first Tax Policy Conference on Friday, June 8, 2007, in
Edmonton. The conference reviewed
the current income tax position of rental housing. It then examined
what information and arguments are needed to obtain tax reform, as well
as what lessons rental housing providers and housing advocates can take
from past industry lobbying efforts. The Conference concluded with
discussion groups on different possible tax reforms, and a plenary
session to identify CFAA's choice for our next tax lobbying goal.
Delegates to the Tax Policy Conference
strongly agreed that it was well
organized and worthwhile. One delegate
wrote, "I really liked the discussions
and sharing of ideas and experiences."
Another wrote, "The afternoon
was a perfect focus for the CFAA.
Great for developing consensus [on our
tax reform goals]."
