  1. We borrowed and spent living the good life/high standard of living That is what you folks don’t get… we are broke…. Canadians who can’t pay our debts sitting on 2 trillion in Provincial/Federal debt these days Debt we really started running up in the 1940s. Sow dem gud ole dais ye pine fer? we didn’t pay for the first time around Which we just kicked this debt down the road for future generations to pay for Problem is, we stopped meeting “natural” population replacement rates in 1971 And we have around 1000 boomers turning 65 each and everyday in Canada (That started in 2011 won’t end until 2028) By 2036 we will have around 11 million Canadian seniors As by 2032 immigration will make up 100% of our population growth So we pack in the immigrants the poor ones to make our french fries and more importantly flip us over in bed in the old age home The rich ones to come support the economy and prop up the real estate Because most of these boomers are also personally cash poor/in debt But luckily….most of these boomers???? Shockingly by some engineered miracle the last few decades 😉!!!!! own a 40 year old plus never been renovated, overpriced home some immigrant is willing to overpay for. Which these boomers can get lines of credit on or reverse mortgage on Or sell if they have to Which they should not .. … as that home will be one their own personal old age home in the future unless you can show me some links… on our building/buying enough facilities to house millions of Canadian seniors in the next decade Yes it’s one big Ponzi scheme that scr (ew) over the younger folks but we don’t want to crash our Ponzi Scheme of economy. (I have purposely gone to live in countries and among the locals living on a dollar a day wages in comparison to our dollar. You think your life su…cks these days) Try having 50k of someone else’s currency worth 2 million of our Canadian dollars Or have what kids you and I did actually have… Having to sell their wares to Russian sailors for a 500 CDN dollar loaf of bread or trying to sail a boat to some distant country for a better life Or grandmami/grandpapi begging on the street because that nest egg home they have they can’t sell off or afford to live in So the people at the bottom of our society lose out…. or we all do Don’t like packing in these immigrants/people as the solution? Let’s hear you folks say “I demand to pay more taxes” and “I demand less social services in return” Or let’s sell 25 year 50 year forward contracts on our natural resources some foreign corporation or Country can come into mine. Using our young as cheap labour Or let’s be known as the deadbeat generation who had to resort to selling off pieces of Canada Plus since we stopped replacing ourselves. It will be more and more likely the great great great grandkids of these new immigrants stuck paying off the debts we run up long after we are gone… As we stick them with the bill But since we have been sel fish our whole lives living that good life let’s “now” complain about the solutions after decades and decades of this Our being broke… azzz Canadians who couldn’t replace ourselves

  18.  @BreadBox42  They come here because we tell them our way of live and education is better than there life over there Plus In China in 2008 around 70% of the people in their real estate markets were buying their 1st homes in their cities By 2018 around 70% of the people in their real estate markets were buying their 2nd and 3rd homes in their cities That’s why you are hearing about problems with their property developers these days. Because back in 2010? Their Central Government started cutting of money flow to these developers. Thus why you heard about Shadow Banks and Underground Economy back then, that their Government had to come into to shutdown or regulate. Even then, It took them almost 14 years to get their overheated real estate under control Heck they were about to introduce a nation wide property tax, but then trump started the trade war in 2018 Why is their Central Government doing this? Because there are still a few hundred million poorer rural folk they still expect to move to the cities to join their more well off urban city folk countrymen. Problem is these property developers were building higher end homes, and not building the affordable homes these rural migrants will need In China Owning a home in the city you migrate to? Affects your employment, health, education and even marriage prospects don’t have a house you don’t get married Thus the common prosperity push and the crackdown on the overt displays of wealth in China Their Government probably figured out you disenfranchise the people at the bottom of your society they are the ones most likely to act out in protest

  21.  @OneTrueKing23  I would argue There are a lot of reasons for our overheated real estate, building permits, immigration is a few of the reasons But the main reason to me was decade upon decade of low interest rates. Creating cheaply borrowed money, and little other investment options other than overheated crypto /stock/real estate markets the Bank Of Canada (BOC) aggressively started to raise rates in March of 2022 which roiled the markets. That first 50 basis point hike was the first of its kind/size in 22 years…. they did 7 more hikes in 2022. Pull up a 25 year chart on the low/lowering interest rates and the inverse relationship between the high/higher home prices. ( You will see the only times our home prices didn’t go up was during the US Subprime Crisis, which crashed the world economy where the BOC lowered rates even more And once more during the mortgage stress test years where they kept rates the same but then those rates gradually came down) The irony being… these rate hikes???? wasn’t because some one at the BOC suddenly went “Oh hey let’s raise rates we have had overheated real estate for 2 decades” Common sense dictates you want to cool your overheated real estate markets you raise rates But they raised rates because of consumer staples inflation and the supply side issues that caused it (Raising rates wasn’t going to fix that inflation, it was to scare the average consumer into spending less) It was just a byproduct…. that home prices were predicted to decrease by 38% by 2024 And homeowners up for renewing their mortgages were to see a 40% increase in monthly payments by 2025 Now 5.5 million Canadians will be in financial trouble as interest rates rise This wasn’t that hard to see We all tend to forget not to long ago we had 2 1/2 channels going 24/7 on TV dedicated to non stop programming in how to buy/renovate and sell a property Around that time it was estimated 1 million Canadians would be underwater on their mortgages if interest rates went up 100 basis points The BOC jacked up rates 425 basis points from 2022 to 2023 And should have kept jacking them up as we followed the American lead But they stopped because banks started to fail in the USA Now rates are expected to go down not up…. So home prices are expected to go up again
