No, a budget of ₹14 lakhs is not mandatory for accommodation in Canada.

Accommodation costs vary by city, housing type, and lifestyle. Typical monthly expenses are:
- Shared apartments: CAD 600 - 1,100
- Homestays: CAD 800 - 1,200
- On-campus residences: CAD 800 - 1,400
- Private apartments: CAD 1,200 - 2,000+

This means you could spend anywhere from ₹48,000 to ₹1,60,000 per month. A ₹14 lakh budget could cover accommodation for several years, depending on your choices. Plan your budget based on your preferred city and housing type.
