Bill 60 is clear recognition by the Ontario government that housing supply and affordability depends on an efficient regulatory environment

Last week, Ontario took another important step toward tackling the housing crisis and strengthening the provincial economy.

The Honourable Rob Flack, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, introduced Bill 60, The Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act, 2025 – an omnibus bill aimed at cutting red tape, speeding up housing approvals, and supporting the construction of the homes and infrastructure Ontario urgently needs.

This legislation builds on the momentum of Bill 17, Protect Ontario by Building Faster and Smarter Act, 2025, introduced earlier this year, and represents a direct response to the challenges faced by the building and development industry across the province.

It is also a clear recognition by the Provincial Government that housing supply and affordability depend on an efficient regulatory environment, timely approvals, and fair, transparent cost structures.
