@SillyWorkMedia@REWoman By "meaningful uptrend," do you mean another global crisis? Because that's what we've had for the past 5-7 years. Speculators, realtors, developers, investors and a Global health scare artificially inflated prices to historic highs. That isn't a normal "trend."
@REWoman@lakesimcoehomes By rally back, do you mean return to overly inflated prices? Home prices, currently, are still above their actual values. Industry members, like suppliers, realtors and builders, artificially inflating prices for their own profits doesn't actually increase value in homes!!
@N0pe76@TDotResident Canada is a country, not just a group of territories. It's an all or nothing game. We aren't going to break apart like the USSR, unless that's what people want. Then..... we're all doomed.
@JonFlynnREstats Is this a rhetorical question? Or do you not know how everyone involved is milking every aspect of this to rob the end user of their money!?!? Maybe we need more people to get their realtor license and more made up industries like "stagers." SMH
@BenRabidoux Trump's a joke. Smith is a joke. PP is a joke. All of them are making Canada and the US a joke. The rest of the world is laughing at us. All of these groveling, pathetic millionaires and billionaires are desperately trying to save themselves, at the expense of Canada.
@JonFlynnREstats I just wonder how long it will take for our government to step in and implement controls to keep another crash from happening. Ban STRs. Put a freeze on foreign investment. Limit income properties to one per person. Cap rent. Freeze new realtor licenses for 10 yrs.
@ClaireShil87473@DanKnightMMA@JustinTrudeau Can we call to demand that Pierre Poilievre resign as leader of the Conservative party, too? Canada doesn't need to follow in the footsteps of the US!
@SteveSaretsky Capital gains isn't a tax heist. It's a control needed to prevent wealthy a$$holes from buying up all the stock for investment. That's what it's for. If you have a better idea for curbing housing prices, feel free to list it below. We need far more controls in place. #Fcapitalism
@LichTamara No. No one is listening to YOU. You're a joke and a criminal. Take your trucker pals down to the US with Jordan and stay there. You guys aren't wanted here and you'll fit right in with the MAGA morons.
@bruce_arthur The comments in this thread are exactly why America has let it come to this. I'll be eagerly awaiting the destruction from North of the border. All while your country's petty culture war tries their best to bring the US back to 1950. So many hopeless, sad, clueless people. SMH.
@SteveSaretsky I don't know what's worse, people not knowing who does what and who doesn't? Or thinking that voting Conservative in the coming election will somehow fix anything!?
@SteveSaretsky Should someone tell every person in here whining about this that Marc Miller is the Minister of Immigration? And that Sean Fraser is Minister of Housing and Infrastructure? Or are we just going to keep screaming nonsense at the walls?
@JohnPasalis Maybe we need to stop calling investors, builders, realtors, tradespeople and politicians experts. Maybe we start listening to economists, people with common sense and people who are broke.
@ShaziGoalie What's funny about this is that we knew it was happening. Why tackle this now when we've allowed AirBnB and REITs to destroy our housing market for years? Why allow banks to offer multiple mortgages by using HELOCs or mortgaging other properties? It's all corrupt and broken.
@REWoman Wasn't it Conservative voters and demanded an early election last time, too? Then bitched about the cost of it after the Libs won again!? What's the point? Worst case scenario, we end up with Poliviere as PM. May as well just bury ourselves now! Trump 2.0, but Canadian!
@SteveSaretsky Help me understand this. The woman failed to do her job. Everyone asked for her to resign. We got that and now we blame Trudeau? The ppl crying about the cost of our last early election are now asking for another one? Have I got this right? This is a win.
@ryangerritsen Tell us you're racist and prejudiced without telling us! Haha. Would you record a video of a little old white lady praying on a rosary if she was!? Odds are probably not. This is a common practice. Devout Muslims don't skip out of prayer times.
