  • Calgary used to be considered one of the most affordable cities to live in Canada... not any more! In 2023 Calgary broke national records in interprovincial migration, as well as having its total population increase by 6% which is HUGE for a 1 year span. Understandably, this has created a major strain on social services and greatly lowered the vacancy rate for real estate, while simultaneously sky rocketing the price of rentals. Alberta has not had rental control for a very long time and while it may have actually been a good thing before 2020, it is now being abused by many landlords and forcing long time tenants out of their homes. If you are thinking of moving to Alberta, but primarily Calgary, please think long and hard if this is definitely the province for you because it is very likely that prices will continue to increase for quite a long time.

    As a legal immigrant to Canada (who 'landed' here with an IT job from a Canadian company) more than 25 years ago, the Canada of today is unrecognizable. Parts of the GTA and even other cities in Canada look more like an Indian or Pakistani slum. That's not what I came to Canada for. It's a shame and it's not racist to point that out. I say that as someone with Pakistani heritage. We came here to be Canadians first and assimilate and contribute to this country. Now people are short-circuiting the system coming in as fake students by the 100s of thousands. It's shameful what the government has allowed.

    You should not be empathetic to the new management company. As a big company, they knew what they were getting involved in. It is absolutely outrageous! It should be illegal.

    Thanks for calling out mass immigration. This is the policy put in place over decades by the developer/speculator/bank lobby. Their front organization is the Century Initiative whose goal is to triple Canada's population to over 100 million. All this to make the wealthy wealthier with real estate inflation and an endless supply of cheap labour.

    Fact is Canada has become unaffordable and I don’t think the trend will ever reverse again.

    The housing crisis is now beginning to spread to areas that were once affordable. Since the housing crisis will never be solved (hint: the politicians and their greedy corporate and developer backers don't want it to be solved), this country is headed for economic collapse.

    UK has had two years in a row of over 650,000 net migration, most of which will go to London and the south east. It’s becoming a problem everywhere.

    Alberta is 5x bigger than England - last year 700,000 migrants came to England (mostly from India, Pakistan, China and Nigeria). = Life here is becoming hell.

    I am so sick of the mass immigration....it is too much! I downsized to a condo townhouse development and half of the people don't speak English....my neighbour brought his pregnant wife over to have her baby....took the baby back to China for months and neither of them work. Dual citizenship should be outlawed..if you want to live here, don't just live here to take advantage of our system and not contribute...lived and worked here all my life.....my doctor retired and it took me over a year to find new doctor....I have paid my dues....they haven't.

    Calgary is not the only city in Canada that is experiencing higher costs of living. Even Saskatchewan, the most affordable province in Canada is seeing crazy inflation. Excessive immigration is driving up the cost of everything including accommodation. We can thank Trudeau for that . I work across Canada, currently in the NWT. I am seeing this everywhere. Even remote cities are unrecognizable due to excessive immigration. . I don’t feel like I’m in Canada anymore. Canadians don’t even have enough jobs or housing. Why are we accepting so many immigrants like it’s a free-for-all? We can’t even take care of our own.😢 This is no longer the Canada that I loved..

    Thanks for speaking up about this. Everyone is struggling but afraid to say why it's happening.

    Thank you. Stating the facts about the negative effects of mass migration or pop increase is not the same as blaming indivdual immigrants. It is Corporate Donor Class and Trudeu who are to blame.

    Man, this is very disturbing, the government is brining in immigrants (me being one of them) into the country and putting a strain on housing. Now we are in a situation where we left and spent a lot of money to come here and and can’t go back at the same time we feel bad for the Canadians.

    Only increased by 55k in population but the average house price went from $450k to $650k? WTH is going on here? Is this for real?
