There are 35 million, millionaires in Communist China. Our population in Canada is approx. 36 million. <br /><br />Communist China is simply buying Canada, one house, one company at a time and all levels of government are good with it. currently a Communist Chinese corporation has plans to purchase one of Canada's largest construction companies. it needs government approval, but we know it will pass. <br /><br />We have no one but ourselves to blame for what is going on with the Canadian housing market. New Zealand has a new P.M. Her first order of business: only residents, citizens may purchase existing homes. That is not going to happen here. The NDP won't do it because if they do they'll never be in power again. Too many people are still making a lot of money. Sell your house in Greater Vancouver and move to Vancouver Island. The big question is, what do you do when there is no more places to run where you can live and work?<br /><br />Keith, yes she does gush, but she also most likely can't afford to buy in Greater Vancouver. Its is rather funny that the talking heads who provide all these great information, can't afford to live close to work.e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-16157420407010987922017-10-28T21:34:56.835-07:002017-10-28T21:34:56.835-07:00The CMHC, a Crown corp. which provides mortgage in...The CMHC, a Crown corp. which provides mortgage insurance to the public, says Canada's housing market is 'highly vulnerable.'<br /><br />Wonderful. <br /><br />http://vancouversun.com/pmn/business-pmn/cmhc-says-the-countrys-housing-market-remains-highly-vulnerable/wcm/cadb29f8-e80d-471f-81e8-e05acaf925d2Hughnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-77081077791694553662017-10-28T16:51:31.736-07:002017-10-28T16:51:31.736-07:00When “ the bubble headed bleach blonde who comes o...When “ the bubble headed bleach blonde who comes on at five” gushes on every aspect about real estate prices, very little focus is devoted to where the money comes from. The province has to a great degree been riding a wave of economic activity based on low interest rates and income from Vancouver real estate and it’s provincial knock-on effect whilst cranking the debt up and looking the other way<br /><br />Problem is the hoi poloi have to a great degree brought into all that without asking the basic question; shouldn’t high property prices be based on the economy, not be the economy.?Keith.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-43427015406746844002017-10-28T11:43:17.626-07:002017-10-28T11:43:17.626-07:00We've been sold out!!!!!!!We've been sold out!!!!!!!sdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-58875901803468801332017-10-28T09:41:15.964-07:002017-10-28T09:41:15.964-07:00It's a giant fricken Ponzi scheme.
