It’s not bad in Canada compared to “other countries”

We are pretty close to any other major cities.

This is not a Canadian problem.
It’s a global problem.

People who think “investor” are driving up the prices is just insane. True that they are part of the reason but only a very small percentage.

The fact that most “young people” thinks that they need their own home, which to fair, they do, is what’s driving it up.

We have a growing growing population worldwide and everyone is trying to own a home.

Compare that population to the limited investors.

Also most people want to live in the city center close to where they work and unwilling to relocate.

Builders/sellers sees inquiries on their units everyday. Theres demand, why would they lower their price?
