      LOL, you do realize people BUILD housing right? You do realize there is housing already there right? In most cities motels were sitting empty for YEARS after covid, so people just started renting there.
      So yeah its 'simple' but you'll still get the wrong conclusion if your that simple that you only look at one side of an equation.

      Not THAT simple.
      VERY low interest rates played a huge role in the hyper-inflation of house prices since 2008.
      People make big purchased based on the ratio of income to monthly payment, not the ratio of income to price.

      I'm Liberal minded and the math shows that greed is driving inflationary prices, simple, it's like gas prices, they don't have to raise it as much as they do but they want to blame things, immigrants are an easy target because they're trying to fit in and not rock the boat so they don't fight back, but Canada's immigration system, around the world, is criticized for holding out many unless they have skills compared to other countries. Any politician that tries to simplify these issues deserves scrutiny. Even though Pollievre will most likely win the next election you should still hold him to task and continue the criticism, do this regardless of the party in power and Canada will be better for all of us. Where I live, migrants are getting jobs that Canadians don't seem to want, they're less lazy than many Canadians.

    Are you serious...... its simple supply and demand man. Canada needs 5.6 million homes right now!!!!! We cannot let in 1 more person without putting a Canadian on the street. Look at every single city or town in this country and the people living in tents. Canada typically only builds 230-240,000 homes a year. Because our construction industry needs 225,000 workers right now and with all the retirements (who unions screwed out of pensions btw) we have no workers to build anything. The more people we let in the more houses we will need, that 5.6 million is only going up. Shop class back in every school, fine companies who apply for permits and don't build, training and more support for workers, material are stupid high, the carbon tax has destroyed our industry. Wake up people!!!! I published a documentary this spring on the homeless crisis, every single person on the street said that immigrants are taking the resources and especially the housing away from them.

      Since when do construction workers have a union? Go to MLS, LOTS of homes in every city. People are homeless because they aren't working. Immigrants are. Materials havent been 'stupid high' for years now. And there is immigration in large part to GET workers, because construction can't find them. Thats why many building lots are sitting idle.
      I'd be curious to know how many homeless people you talked to.

      Hmmm, that's funny. Because I would certainly think that people who's family business is REAL ESTATE like your boy little PP could somehow not charge as much for their building rents if they really wanted to help. BUT THEY DON'T because their BUSINESS IS REAL ESTATE and their biggest donors are BIG REAL ESTATE and BIG OIL. Many homes and condos sit un rented because the prices are too high and DEVELOPERS created ridiculous ONE ROOM CONDOS that sit unsold. Of course you're whining about industry having to pay the Carbon tax, (which 80% of Canadians get a back a rebate larger than what they paid into) but no credit for THE CONSERVATIVES introducing it first, huh? It's just whine about Trudeau. I'll bet you were one of those pretend truckers (real truckers and their union were against that hillbilly halfwit fest). down pi**ing all over Ottawa, huh? YOU WERE HUH?!? And those people you asked who was to blame for their homelessness, NONE of them remembered when HARPER and little PP were last in office and brought the recession to Canada by de-regulating banks?!?

    This video states that in 2023 that Saskatoon had 12,240 immigrants, that is incorrect. Those are based on the numbers of 14,400 newcomers coming to Saskatoon and 85% being new immigrants in 2023 only. According to Stats Can in 2021 31.2% of residents in Saskatoon were already immigrants. Why do they fail to mention the other 83,000 immigrants that are in Saskatoon? In 2022 there were 16,000 new immigrants to Saskatoon. So if you take the 83K that were already there from 2021 and before, add on 16,000 for 2022, 12,000 for 2023 and the 9000 already from 2024 you get a grand total of 120,000 immigrants currently living in Saskatoon. According to Macro Trends the current population of Saskatoon is 347,000 people. So that works out to be 35% of the population of Saskatoon are immigrants.
    Canada is built off of immigration. It is a part of our history and allows for a vast and wide variety of amazing people to come to this country. It is part of our heritage and something we, as Canadians are super proud of. However when it's too much, too fast and nowhere for them to go that is when it's time to step back, look at what reality is, and go from there to solve the problem, because nobody is winning right now. New immigrants are disillusioned about Canada and feel like they have been lied to and taken advantage of, old immigrants are upset and angry that they had to work so hard to come to Canada when new immigrants are just showing up and just straight up demanding to stay, and then Canadians who wonder how everything exploded in price and they can't afford to eat, live or travel in Canada anymore. This isn't benefitting anyone.

    To its credit, the writer has corrected a couple of the last video's dishonest errors, but there's lots left.
    Not all of you will read this comment, so remember this: The writer used Moncton, the area with the HIGHEST POPULATION GROWTH IN ALL OF CANADA (6.0%), higher than ANY COUNTRY on earth, to claim that immigration isn't having an effect on rents. It's unbelievable how dishonest one would have to be to make such a claim.
    Think about how weak the argument is that they had to cherry pick 5 relatively small cities and even then had to make up fake statistics for each and every one. This is because imm1gration fueled population growth has strongly affected almost every city in the country.
    Saskatoon's population growth was 4.8%, not 3.5%.
    There is exactly 0 evidence that Moncton, New Brunswick got a mere "3500" immigrants, and their population growth was 6 or 6.1%, the HIGHEST IN CANADA, and the highest of ANY COUNTRY on planet earth.
    There is exactly 0 evidence that Prince Albert got just "700" immigrants,
    There is exactly 0 evidence that Red Deer got just "1300" immigrants and Red Deer's population grew by 3.88% year over year, not 1.5%.
    There IS evidence that Quebec City received 18,494 immigrants (out of a total of 20,678 residents, i.e. 90%!) however, the population of Quebec City is 560,270, so Quebec City's population growth was 3.69%, not 2.1%.
    When you suggest someone is wrong about their math, you should obviously double and triple and quadruple check your math before embarrassing yourself.
    The writer knew that few people would bother checking their stats, hence why no sources are no provided. The writer also knew that relatively few people live in Red Deer, Prince Albert, Saskatoon, and Moncton, so felt comfortable lying knowing few there would say "hey, wait a minute".

      You are 'partly' right. About numbers anyway. In 2023 the population increase was 8700. But it depends what year is being used, it may also depend on whether "Moncton" is being used, or whether the "Moncton Metropolitan Area" because technically there are THREE cities there, Dieppe having much faster growth at one point.
      But like others you are neglecting new housing and converted housing. The number of new apartment buildings in all cities is huge (relative for there). Also, all the downtown 'motels' were simply converted.
      If you need an apartment in Moncton its no problem, just go look. Lots available. CHEAP apartments are another story. But thats the market, nobody builds apartments for poor people.

      Unless housing units are sitting empty...
      How much is a landlord going to lower their rents by? Obviously, not a dime.
      What happens to real estate values if there are more houses than occupants? Obviously, prices collapse as sellers compete for buyers.
      What happens if people renewing their mortgage owe $800,000 on houses that have dropped to values of $500,000 or less. Just check back to 2007/08 in the US to understand what happens where large numbers of owners get into negative equity situations.
      What happens to the ratio of working age people to retirees if immigration stops? It dropped from 4.1:1 in 2013 to 3.2:1 in 2023 - even with millions of working age immigrants. Senior's care programs currently cost us about $80 B a year, up by ~ $34 B based on 44.1B (2014-15 spend) x 1.41 (41% growth in number of retirees) x 1.255 (25.5% inflation over that time). With zero immigrants this ratio would be low 2's to 1. Who will pay the taxes needed to pay for all these senior's benefits if our work force shrinks?

    Population increase obviously wouldn't directly correlate with rent increases. People who don't live in the city/province can buy houses, realtors knowing this can increase their prices if they see even some sort of demand heading their way. Population increase into Canada as a whole affects housing prices everywhere, not just in Toronto or whatever. If an immigrant sees a house going for 200k in Moncton they'll gladly pay that than the 600k in St johns, sellers know this and will jack the price up to 500k. This is basic supply and demand 🤦‍♂

    So… any and all immigration is good? I don’t know about other cities, but where I live, immigration is stressing housing, health care and more. We should certainly welcome immigrants, just not at current levels. Poilievre’s wife is Venezuelan… He’s not anti-immigration. Please critique him, but this is tedious and misleading.

    • @rondaniels9974
      @rondaniels9974 3 месяца назад

      Immigration stressing out health care is just plain false.
      It's propaganda, plain and simple.
      The health care system is strained because we have the highest proportion of over-65 population we've ever had, and old people need more health care interventions. Check ANY hospital and you'll see a LOT of old patients.
      This is not a guess. I've got friends who audit hospitals for a living and the 41% increase in the number of Canadians over 65 is a huge challenge for health care.
      The immigrants we brought in in the last decade were predominantly between 20 and 40 in 2023. The immigration was clearly targeting that age group. It wasn't un-targeted.
      These people are not the patients plugging up our hospitals.
      When I see young Indian immigrants in the hospitals, they are helping run them - the opposite of being a burden on them.

    How is that everyone forgets that house PRICES went up by over 60% between 2008 and 2015, and have never gone back down?
    Combine that with interest rate hikes and post pandemic backlogs in building and you get high prices AND high interest rates, meaning anything with a mortgage on it costs much more - including all those leveraged rental units.
    Poilievre loves to say everything is really simple, but notice he doesn't say that what he's saying is TRUE - because his math NEVER maths up right.

      Prices are not meant to go down - that would be counterproductive - but increases should be consistent with inflation. Besides that, I'm not sure where you get your misinformation. Prices went up by 40% between 2008 and 2015, and up by a further 60% between 2015 and present day. Keep in mind an increase from 323k to 440k between 2008 and 2015 is much less devastating than the increase from 440k to 720k between 2015 and present day. It actually peaked at 835k in 2022 and has only dropped temporarily due to the high interest rate environment. You can be certain the prices are going to the moon as interest rates cool. Get your facts straight before taking a seat at the table with the adults.

      First off, lose the childish insults. It hurts your credibility.
      I believe it was the MLS data for "Median house Price Canada" that I referenced when I checked that number.
      Average house price can be different than median. Perhaps this is why our numbers differ
      Inflation for 2009 to 2015 was;
      0.3, 1.8, 2.9, 1.5, 0.9, 2.0, 1.1 % - compounding to a total increase of 11%
      House prices went up by MULTIPLES of what the CPI went up by.
      Whether you use average house price or median house price, there is no doubt that there was hyperinflation of house prices during the Harper era - which compounds the housing cost problems we're having today.
      When I was doing my undergrad degree, a one bedroom apartment costs $320 a month and I made $6 an hour in my summer job (53 hours of work to pay my rent) Now that same apartment in the same building would be $1529 a month (Zillow) a month and students in similar jobs make about $17 an hour (89 hours of work to pay rent).
      So we definitely have an issue with housing costs eating up our gross income compared to 40 years ago.
      My question would be, since we all knew rising prices due to very low interest rates were going to be a problem, and it was clearly well on its way during the Harper era, why didn't we do anything about it then?

      At least I told you what years I was talking about and will tell you that I used MLS Median House Price data.
      FWIW, I chose 2008 because what I really want to show is that the hyperinflation was triggered by very low interest rates - which started in 2008.
      I also wanted to show that, during this period of hyper-inflation of housing prices, the guy who's now screaming about housing costs did nothing to try to stem the rise.
      Interest rates are set by the BOC (not the PM), and, in Canada are usually a reaction to what our trading partners are doing with theirs. It's always a balancing act between encouraging people to spend (low interest rates) and controlling domestic inflation (too much domestic spending - people start to bid up prices, like what happened in housing) and import inflation (higher consumer prices on imported goods because dollar drops).
      Poilievre loves to blame Trudeau for stuff that started before Trudeau got into office (like the Montreal car theft/export ring) but never offers workable solutions, and certainly would like us all to forget that he did nothing about these same problems when he was sitting on the other side of the House.
      I don't think we should give him a pass on his 20 years of past inaction.
      I'd rather the Conservatives gave us a candidate who actually fixes things - not just runs around blaming and complaining.

    Even if we take the numbers at face value, and we shouldn't, the marginal price of a good can go up more or less than demand.
    For example, if you need to quickly ramp up copper production then it'll be more expensive than existing copper. We already started working the copper that's easy to get. Toget more, we need to go to copper in more awkward locations, or copper buried deeper. So the marginal cost of a ton of copper will go up as time goes on and pressure goes up. The relationship is non-linear.
    Similarly, building six times the housing (roughly what we'd need to keep up with pop growth) will be far more expensive than simply taking the current cost of housing and multiplying by six.
    There are other problems with this analysis but I hadn't seen non-linearity pointed out yet.

    The math shows that greed is driving inflationary prices, it's like gas prices, they don't have to raise it as much as they do but they want to blame things, immigrants are an easy target because they're trying to fit in and not rock the boat so they don't fight back, but Canada's immigration system, around the world, is criticized for holding out many unless they have skills compared to other countries. Any politician that tries to simplify these issues deserves scrutiny. Even though Pollievre will most likely win the next election you should still hold him to task and continue the criticism, do this regardless of the party in power and Canada will be better for all of us. Where I live, migrants are getting jobs that Canadians don't seem to want, they're less lazy than many Canadians.

    We have an emerging oligopoly where real estate investment trusts and other financial firms own or control 20 to 30% of all rentals across Canada. That number seems to be steadily increasing resulting in ever rising rents. Canadians housing has become just another investment for these companies, it pushes up prices and pushes Canadians out as homeowners. What happens when these companies own over 50%, where all the cost of rentals is controlled by a limited number or corporations and trusts? This is the problem that needs to be addressed, otherwise the middle class will continue to decline.
