During and after World War II, the Canadian government commissioned standardized designs for inexpensive and quick-to-build housing. Houses like this were built all over the country and can still be found in many cities. Houses intended for use in western Canada seem to have fuel or wood sheds attached to the house, as in this model. This design from 1942 is for a simple frame house with clapboard siding. Designs with similar floorplans were also built with partial- and all-brick cladding. In 2024, the federal government announced a revival of the ideas behind the wartime housing program to address Canada's current housing shortage.
