Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Oh yes, I also crave the head of a moose on every wall.

I accept that the pool is as much use as a chocolate fireguard, it would just be so I could stand beside it and think "I've got a pool".

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Time to trade up then, expensive properties fall harder than cheap ones. Perhaps a place with an indoor and a pool.

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Oh, perhaps I've been (accidentally, for a change) misleading. I didn't intend to suggest that the NDP would help such a person to buy a house but that NDP policies such as, taxing the rich and...

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

They're plainly more electable than the conservatives as they're in government. He's right that interest rate increases benefit the rich and hurt the poor. He's also correct in saying that "workers"...

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Only slightly. Maybe eighteen months ago my daughter and her husband started looking in Vancouver with a budget of 1.5. That wasn't enough so they saved some more and eventually bought at 2.7. Less...

Beach! You parvenu.

Yes, I was happy there even if it is a bit up itself. Being able to walk to the yacht club was fantastic. Congratulations.

In terms of the broad sweep of history, sure. If you were born into the plague, you were born to die. If you were born to a sharecropper you were born to be poor. In terms of the late twentieth and...

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

That and level of commitment. I'm not saying give up avocado toast and it'll all be easy but, at the same time, people do buy houses when the interest rate is 18% and they do it when the rate is 2%...

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Hadn't heard/seen that but it fits. Poilievre seemed a bit fringe when he was pandering to the truck parade people and touting Bitcoin for personal gain, now he's really dabbling with the weirdos....

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Not the most open minded of people. Lemme guess, Peterson blames women and Poilievre blames non-Anglo Saxons.

I think there's a good case that Canada's biggest problems are Peterson and Poilievre.

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

I don't think Canadian salaries are particularly relevant to the price of houses in Toronto and Vancouver. It's not people working locally who set the prices.

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

Well, with my daughter having just bought a house, I can't say I would welcome a fall in values; that'd be shit for her. There is, of course, zero chance of me voting for anyone to the right of...

Re: real estate prices in Canada sustainable?

The Guardian has news about Canada, it carried the election result and there's been mention of the rain in BC. That's enough detail, I think, very little has happened in Canada since I've been here.
