Canada-Ontario Housing Benefit (COHB) - City of Toronto

Federal-provincial rent supplement paid to households renting in the private market. In Toronto it is not open to the public: households must be on or eligible for the Centralized Waiting List, be referred by an approved community partner agency during referral windows, agree to leave the waiting list if approved, and fit an annual enrolment cap set by the province.
