  1. When you print billions & double our federal debt you get this. Remember to thank a liberal voter.

  2. house prices go to high, I move down south live under bush house, food of the land and resources come from same one land… no effect on my life, its your loss. will never stand by you, freeze again another time.

  3. All eyes are on the Canadian housing market now. Variable rate mortgage holders are feeling the pressure.

  4. I wonder if they could do regional rates. Like say slap Vancouver and Toronto with a rate somewhere from 5 to 8%?

    1. @instricallysafe That’s dumb. What are they afraid of, discrimination against Quebec? They should have been able to do it for Fort MacMurray, Alberta. It might have saved the value of some of those homes when companies started pulling out of the tar sands a couple years ago.

  5. The sooner we can get to 10+% rates, the sooner the population of South Ontario, Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver, and the Maritime provinces can start sharing in the pain that comes from not-so-Liberal policies.

  6. *”The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago and the next best time is now”* I consider this to be best motivational quote I’ve heard in a very long time. But motivational quotes are useless if you don’t practice what you preach*
