The Saint John region is growing thanks to significant interprovincial and international migration. As a multi-modal transportation and logistical hub, the region has prime development opportunities. Many new people move here every year – and we need housing to accommodate that growth.

The Saint John Region is situated on the traditional territory of the Wolastoqiyik, Mi’Kmaq, and Peskotomuhkati Nations. This territory is covered by Peace and Friendship Treaties signed with the British Crown in the 1700s. The treaties recognized the significant and meaningful role of the Wolastoqiyik, Mi’Kmaq, and Peskotomuhkati in this province and the country with the intent to establish a relationship of trust and friendship.
