Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) is a Canadian government agency. The agency is responsible for the housing industry in Canada. Its main duty is currently to ensure low cost mortgages are available to Canadians by providing insurance to lenders in case of defaults and homebuyer assistance. Since 1954 one in three Canadian home buyers have made use of CMHC's programs. The CMHC also has a large research wing that analyses the housing situation in Canada and housing design and technologies.
