Rationale

With interest rates held steady at 4.5%, high mortgage costs continue to suppress household discretionary income. By providing targeted relief or extending amortization periods for first-time homebuyers, we can free up monthly cash flow, directly boosting consumer spending and offsetting the drag of high debt servicing costs on the broader economy.

Details

Epoch: 137

Domain: financial

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $4.50B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): +$18.60B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; diverges)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • +$16.50B → consumer_spending (Consumer Spending Growth) via stock_market_index
  • +$0.93B → healthcare_spending (Healthcare Spending) via consumer_spending
  • +$0.45B → canada_health_transfer (Canada Health Transfer (CHT)) via gdp_growth
  • +$0.42B → education_spending (Education Spending) via consumer_spending

Causal effects: 827 downstream variables affected (763 immediate)

Divergence after: 521.342

Variable changes

  • consumer_spending: 1300 → 1365

Proposed policy move

consumer_spending: 1,300 → 1,365 (▲ 65)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
