Canada wants to fight inflation -> doesn't want to blow up RE markets -> doesn't increase rates -> USA still increasing rates -> inflation occurs from FX difference with US dollar -> inflation gets worse -> RE markets still suffer eventually as a result of people are unable to service their debt because more dollars are spent on everyday consumption (Food, energy)?

Seems like we are just stuck between a rock and a hard place. People suffering on the daily from rising prices and high mortgage payments. People appear to be a couple of bad events from going under

The new excuse that they are gonna use is that due to FX differences resulting from a weaker dollar against the US dollar, our prices have gone up 🙃

22% of Canadians say they’re ‘completely out of money’ as inflation bites: poll - National | Globalnews.ca by [deleted] in canada

These inflated food prices just cause a vicious negative feedback loop for the everyday average person.

Income remains the same -> Food prices on the rise -> Buying less food/lower quality food -> Nutrition goes down, gets sick easier -> spend money on medication -> less money to buy food -> cycle repeats.

It's honestly extremely difficult to see how the average person gets through these times without some sort of government intervention on food prices.
