Historique
The Ontario Housing Corporation was established in 1964 to take over responsibility for the management of the government's housing policies and programs that had been developed over the previous decade - primarily by the Housing Branch of the Department of Economics and Development. In 1966 a parallel organisation, the Ontario Student Housing Corporation, was established to serve the same role in the development of student housing in Ontario. The assets and program responsibilities of this Corporation were absorbed by the Ontario Housing Corporation in 1978.
The Ontario Housing Corporation, as landlord, provided subsidized rental housing to families and senior citizens through a network of regional local housing authorities. Ownership and administration of public and social housing was transferred to municipal control with the passage of the Social Reform Act, 2000. In 2002, the Ontario Housing Corporation effected the transfer of social housing administration to forty-seven municipal service managers, thereby eliminating local housing authories across the province. The Ontario Housing Corporation continued to carry out certain functions associated with the financing of the public housing program and the Dr. Albert Rose Bursary program.
The Ontario Housing Corporation was administered through the Department of Economics and Development between 1964-1968; the Department of Trade and Development (1968-1972); the Ministry of Industry and Tourism (1972); the Ministry of Housing (1973-1981); the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (1981-1985); the Ministry of Housing (1985-1995); and since 1995, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing.
In December 2006, under the Ontario Mortgage and Housing Corporation Act, the Ontario Mortgage and Housing Corporation superseded the Ontario Housing Corporation, with "responsibilities ... primarily financial in nature, arising from the corporation's former role in delivering government programs."
