It's amazing how badly conservatives lost the economic argument.
No need. Nature will run its course.
They want to lower house prices a bit so that its not a insane drop when you boomers all die and save us from a economic shock where the whole system implodes on itself.
There are so many speculators shorting the Canadian real estate market, Red lights are popping up everywhere.
Its really not complicated. Right now you have the most people ever trying to get into the housing market, resulting inntge highest prices ever seen. But you have the biggest population generation ever who owns all the most expensive homes soon to exit the market.
It's simple math.
Somethings got to give.
In 15 years there may as well be 5 house for every Canadian looking to buy.
'Everyone knows the risks when they buy a house.'
Was the Harper Creed in 2014.
So cheer up, buttercup and stop believing only what the MSM feeds to you.
There's more to the economy than real estate and that's why GDP growth is key indicator of performance.
If your prediction is accurate then the boomers dying off is the natural mechanism to drop prices.... Mr Reddenbacher and Tater Tot are (according to your theory) doing nothing more than expediting the event and losing a bunch of cash in tax dollars at the same time.
When you have 10 house available for every person looking too buy, It won't matter if you're up or bottom half. Only 1 house is going to sell out of the 15
At least in Ontario they can afford to buy a house.. Vancouver you have to have won the LottoMax to buy a house..
Ontario has it right.. inclusive for all.

Oh for Pete's sake! Lesson learned. I should have checked out what Wynn's mortgage plans were and, I obviously missed a portion of the discussion on the radio about the stress test. My humble apologies people! I understood it was a federal plan - guess it was Wynn's plan. Sorry!
Since I don't have a mortgage I don't care all that much if the market crashes although if the right property comes along for the right price I may buy another place.
THis also probably won't have a negative effect on foreign buyers either for the same reason. They own it and a market crash will just make it easier for rich foreigners to buy even more homes.
You'll find far more people leaving the rental market to shop those starter home opportunities.
The biggest loss will be in the upper-mid and high market homes. The lower end/starter homes will not be impacted early as much, we seeing that here right now despite a low commodity price and recession in AB
