It is absolutely correct and there's tons of documentation on this, much of which I've posted here before. And it doesn't take a genius to figure that out, if you have 10 houses and 20 families you've got a problem and it's going to put upward pressure on the cost of those 10 houses. And that's exactly what's been happening for years in Canada, more people coming in than houses are being finished You might be surprised but it turns out all of those people are actually humans. They all consume food, they all need somewhere to live, and they all need medical services. It doesn't make any difference if they're temporary or not Canada's home prices were going up anyway. This chart starts at 2015 As you can see home prices rocketed up under the liberals then stay level for a few years and began climbing again in 2019 going into 2020 before the pandemic. Then it had a pandemic spike and came back down a little bit but he's still at record highs having radially shot up again. So first the liberals immediately shot home prices through the roof,, then they went on to radically increase home prices again As to immigration: Immigration is making Canada's housing more expensive. The government was warned 2 years ago | CBC News From the new high

Sure. FairPoint. And I see all too often people going up to their last nickel to get a mortgage to get into a place with no wiggle room if anything goes wrong. And that's dumb But it is the situation a lot of people find themselves in. Oftentimes they could even afford the mortgage when they moved in but unfortunately the cost of other things have gone up to the point where without realizing it slowly and incrementally the discretionary spending and disposable income is evaporated and now they're up against a wall For most of those decades in years it went up slower than the increase in wages. For example prior to 2015 for most of the 20 years before increase in wages averaged about 1 percent HIGHER than inflation, meaning people were gaining ground. Slowly for sure but definitely not falling behind on average. Well when you grow up you'll start paying attention to these kinds of things but they don't affect your life right now. However in the last year alone condos have been subject to regulation that will cost them $15 to $20,000, which means that a strata of 70 people Will have to come up with at least about 215 Dollars each just to comply with it, and of course we just found out in this budget that PST will now be added to management services and engineering services which are a big part of the stratus costs, meaning hundreds more dollars. This is after the challenges caused by forcing all Stratus to rent which has increased the price burden on many Stratas And that happened a few years back as well as certain reporting requirements. And of course if you were actually a homeowner you'd be aware that Elderly homeowners have been allowed to defer their property tax and pay it with the sale of their home after their death so that they can still afford to live in their home given the increasing values, and the government just radically increase the amount that they will be charged for interest as well, forcing many of them to consider having to pay now when they really can't afford it. That one applies to all homes not just condos And there's a few others like that. Like I said at your age I don't expect you to know about these but for people that are on a fixed income or are just getting by trying to feed their family these blows all hurt.

If anything if he gets a majority it'll slow down Very obviously he wants to try and force an election but he is aware that there is a history in Canada a parties who call unnecessary elections being severely punished and voters turning on them Nobody knows more than he does that the fortunes of a party can turn around overnight with the right impetus. So he's being cautious, obviously he has what he feels as a plan that would work and we'll see if he can make it happen. But he'll back away if it looks like he'll be blamed for calling the election

My mom will leave me plenty and I have plenty already so I'm kind of okay. I don't rely on my wife to earn my income for me the way you do But there are a lot of women who just get by right now and even though their house rich can't actually use any of it Of course you don't actually care about poor people, if they get in the way of your narrative they can go screw themselves amIright? Equity that she can't make use of. But she's a millionaire, Yay!

Ok. Here's the post i replied to in it's entirety: "No kidding. Well that IS a surprise. Lol. ": that's it. That's all the first post in this thread says. But you had to lie and pretend it said something else Thanks for proving you have no moral standards and lie about everything yet again Robotwat

It's already proven and it's proven you're a liar. So TWO wins for me You've got BUPKIS!!!!!!! Also what kind of loser pretends i'm on 'ignore' and then replies to me? Twat

Its ok Beve, we know.

You'll be voting for the liberals as you always do. That's who you support You're not here everyday standing up for the NDP

Both of those statements are largely inaccurate. While price increases during covid were crazy that has been happening and more and more in an escalating fashion since the recovery from the recession, so around 2014-2015. And it's gotten worse and worse and worse in the liberals just refuse to deal with it even though justin Trudeau ran on getting house prices under control in 2015 as one of his platforms An immigration increased the day he took over and has been growing substantially ever since. In fact one report showed that since 2016 we've been building 100,000 homes fewer than we need to give it our level of immigration, and that's every year since 2016. And that report came out 3 years ago or so. As you can see from this chart immigration spikes sharply as soon as the liberals took over and was already growing at an unsustainable rate

It's everybody's mortgage for the most part. as well as the costs of living. Most people geared their lives and budgets around one interest rate and it doubled and then some, and that has a powerful impact. But on top of that the cost of living has shot up, often also with additional costs based on new gov't regulation which we're still seeing being added even this year in bc for example. Costs her way up and wages are not and people just can't afford to get by anymore

I could only make it halfway through before the nausea set in but I didn't hear him mention productivity once. You're trying to include cost of living which is no part of this discussion because you know that I'm right and he's dropping the ball on productivity and you're desperately trying to change the channel Worse he's trying to blame the pandemic and saying that inflation isn't bad at all right now, except our food inflation is over 7%. Food is the number one thing you can't go without, you can cancel your Disney plus but you can't cancel food. He desperately wants the problems of today to be the previous government's fault but the previous government is the current government and the problems of today are still happening today A 15-year study is not a reasonable response to a productivity problem that we're having today and it's his only response

Well that's easy. You lie about it You're like Herbie who managed to triple the value of his home with his credit card You know you can't rely on the actual numbers, anything that comes from stack can or any legitimate source shows that if anything Canadians are suffering worse than ever. 25% of Canadians have to use a food bank last year at least once. So you come up with a lie about how it must all be wrong because you're doing really really great! Honest! Super duper great! The problem is we know you lie about just about everything else so it's pretty easy to accept that you're lying here. Almost as easy to accept is the idea that what you mean is you are unemployed but your wife finally got a second job So your household income doubles

LOL thanks, i was trying to explain it at a level you could understand so 6 year old is what i was shooting for You just get stupider every time we talk. So... old lady i know is on a fixed retirement income. She's now a ' millionare' because the property she bought in 73 for 60 thousand has gone up and is worth about 2.5 million today. So... she's rich right? According to you she just has to borrow on her equity and she'll have all kinds of money!!! WHOOOO But nope. First off if she couldn't defer her property taxes she couldn't even afford to live in her home. And that actually wiped out a LOT of elderly people in vancouver before the deferral program kicked in, people who'd lived in their homes for decades and paid off their mortgages suddenly couldn't afford the property taxes as the value of their properties shot up. Now. If she were to borrow money on that property to buy another property she would now still have to have a mortgage on both properties. If you do the math, she would not be albe to rent out the second property in MOST cases for enough to cover the mortgages these days, she'd fall a little short. SO where's that money come from to pay that? In time, over say the next 10 years, that property will PROBABLY go up in value and the mortgage will come down and rents will likely go up but there's no way she can afford to get to that point. you must be like 18 years old not to understand this shit. You are comfortably one of the stupidest people on this forum and that's going up against people like Robo Smith and Exflyer. The vast majority of people cannot touch the equity in their home. And I do mean the vast majority not just a majority. The only way they can is through things like reverse mortgages which gives up a huge hunk of that equity but they then can't pass on to their family and all of a sudden they're not millionaires anymore You really shouldn't talk about things you don't understand and you very clearly have no understanding of this. You are legitimately dumber than a rock

Funny, it was 5 minutes ago when we were discussing trump making it mandatory

That just sets him up for a hell of a crash when he can't deliver. Davos was played by the media as if he was some sort of hero and achieved something against Donald Trump and he's riding a little bit of a bump from that. But I know today that trump's people are saying that even kusma goods are going to be tariffed moving forward as part of any new deal. When carney fails to deliver against trump people's disappointment in him will be a significant backlash. That's why he's considering a spring election. He's giving away free money, he's doing speeches and flying all over the world, he's doing everything he can to boost his popularity at this moment In the hopes that he can force an election and get a majority because within a year or so people are going to realize he can't deliver and they will turn on him and he wants to avoid having to go to the polls then.

Nope. We were actually growing and doing just fine right up until about 2015. Canada was far better off in 2014 than it was in 2006. I know you like to lie to yourself and pretend that the disaster that the liberals have brought on us is somehow not their fault and is just part of a larger picture but it's not. This is 100 percent on the liberals.

LOL no, i said an irate badger could teach you how to be less miserable and insulting, never mind her. I'm sorry, everyone else got that but i forgot about your comprehension issues. I should have included pictures. That's my bad

So what you're saying is it was you that had the reading comprehension problem Those negotiations take quite some time. While the deal may have been struck after Carney's visit it means they were looking to buy those things and negotiate them well beforehand. There's absolutely nothing in the story that suggests that they bought it as a result of the deal other than the final order was placed right afterwards. China was buying canola all along. They didn't stop because of the tariffs. And considering that some of these deliveries will be made while the tariffs are still in place it is pretty obvious that that's not what motivated though I tried to explain this to you but you were just too thick to get it. Can you explain why somebody would take delivery of a product in February when if they waited till March it would be literally 50% cheaper? China needs Canada's canola. Always has, the tariffs were always a bit of a bluff. And you couldn't put together that if the tariffs are in place until March somebody ordering a delivery in February wasn't thinking about the tariffs at the time when they placed the order LOL Well you are the special kind of stupid aren't you. Next time pay attention to what I'm telling you and maybe you won't look so dumb

I didn't watch the whole thing as I had something else I had to do but sounds like it went well and is generally well received. Not a lot in the way of Rance and he got to yell at some democrats which he always likes Longest one in recorded history though Perhaps not shocking

Pretty hard to take you seriously when you can't even tell what you're talking about. What files are missing?

LOL sure you eff up and claim we're shipping massive amounts of something due to a non existent trade agreement that won't even be in force till march and that somehow it's my reading ability that's the problem One thing we can always count on you leftie losers for is that when you say something stupid, no matter how stupid it is you'll find a way to double down on it

If your point was you were a liar and dumber than a stump then happy to assist Although you certainly don't need my help proving that. Seriously, don't you get tired of looking like a twat? I never get tired of watching it but I can't imagine what's in it for you

The china thing isn't any kind of trade deal, it's basically a verbal agreement between the two countries that china does not have to love to and can arbitrarily just ignore at any time. It is made no commitment. It didn't even commit to exactly how much it was going to reduce the tariffs

And before it even gets there is sold and spoken for. Do you honestly think they've got canola piled up in silos that they haven't already been out selling? They're already bidding on next year's crop. You don't understand any of this do you? You are not a person integrated in the industry that's quite obvious

Says the guy coming up with little fantasies about how I would react to various things I guess that's your way of admitting you were wrong No you didn't, Liar I pointed out that was an example where people crossed for eithical rather than personal greed reasons. But i never said it was a good or bad thing. I didn't defend it at all. In fact just above here i pointed out that ALL floor crossers should be subject to a recall option by the constituents who should have the final decision LOLOL LOLOL you look like a twat again and you're big mad as usual about it Every single time you just make crap up and wind up looking the fool At any rate, there you go. These guys crossed the floor for personal gain and benefit, it has nothing to do with the leaders, and at the end of the day floor crossing should be allowed but should be subject to a recall process if the constituents are not convinced by their reason for crossing. I do so love it when you drop by to make me laugh like this tho! Appreciate ya!
