Statistics Canada's September 16 release puts national permit value at C$12.2 billion and Ontario's at C$4.6 billion.
Why it matters
Permit data are a leading indicator of construction intentions and can inform assessments of Ontario activity and housing supply. They are not home-price or completion data.
