According to the latest figures released by Statistics Canada, residential permits jumped almost eight per cent, hitting $6.6 billion, while non-residential landed just shy of double-digit growth, rising 9.8 per cent to $4.2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Seven provinces reported monthly increases, with the most notable gains coming in Ontario, which was up 10.7 per cent, and Alberta, with a 25.6 per cent gain.<\/p>\n<p>Within the residential figures, the multi-dwelling component saw a sharp increase, gaining 13.6 per cent, led by a variety of large value permits in Ontario. That province saw a 25.4 per cent rise over the January results. Single-family homes remained more stable, gaining just a half per cent. Overall, residential permits were issued for 22,900 new units nationally, 3,600 more than the intentions reported in January.<\/p>\n<p>Several high-value projects in Alberta bolstered the non-residential sector. The total monthly value of non-residential permits increased 9.8 per cent to $4.2 billion, the highest non-residential value since February 2022. Across the country, gains in the industrial (+42 per cent) and commercial (6.2 per cent) components more than offset losses in the institutional (-7.6 per cent) component.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.statcan.gc.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.statcan.gc.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(d, s, id) {\n\t  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n\t  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n\t  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n\t  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&appId=761779333850340&version=v2.0\";\n\t  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n\t}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-5143531171910809\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- News - Bottom -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5143531171910809\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8320848692\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on-sitemag.com\/construction\/ontario-and-alberta-push-permits-higher-in-february\/1003979077\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=ontario-and-alberta-push-permits-higher-in-february\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">This article was originally posted at Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building permits, February 2023.
