March 2026 - Andersen Brethour Report

The March 2026 Andersen Brethour Report reinforces a critical message:

The market has not turned yet — but it is quietly positioning for what comes next.

Canada’s economy remains in a holding pattern. Business investment is stalled, housing activity is subdued, and uncertainty surrounding trade policy continues to delay major decisions. At the same time, interest rates have already improved — yet buyer activity has not responded in a meaningful way. Today's announcement by the Ontario government should go a long way to stimulating activity!

This month’s key insights include:

✅ Economic growth remains stalled with no clear near-term catalyst

✅ Trade uncertainty is actively delaying investment and hiring decisions

✅ Housing markets are stabilizing but not yet recovering - there are, however, green shoots of life and reason for optimism - look at our latest New Openings Report for the recent openings at Union Glen in Markham with Townhomes starting from $858,990 and ultimately over 100 homes sold

✅ Lower interest rates are not yet translating into stronger demand

✅ 2026 is shaping up as a positioning year ahead of recovery
