Twelve tiny homes planned for Métis residents in northern Saskatchewan

A northern Saskatchewan housing project is intended to deliver 12 tiny homes for single Métis citizens with low incomes. Partners marked the project’s start in Buffalo Narrows on Sept. 23, 2026, according to a CMHC announcement.

The planned distribution is six homes in La Loche, three in Cumberland House and three in Buffalo Narrows. These locations account for the full 12-home project, rather than three separate developments of 12 homes each.

The initiative involves the federal government, Saskatchewan through Saskatchewan Housing Corporation, and Métis Nation-Saskatchewan. The release describes affordable rental housing intended for a particular group of residents in northern communities.

At the project launch, the homes were expected to be completed in spring 2027. The announcement therefore describes planned supply and an expected delivery timetable; it does not establish that the rentals are currently finished or available to move into.
