Canadians are slowly building up more confidence in their goals towards homeownership. According to the official release of the survey, about nine out of ten people believe that owning their own home gives them a greater sense of emotional well-being. Despite the fact that it could mean more work needed towards saving up, Canadians would rather own a home than pay rent.
