If you were writing a novel about how Canadian progressives went from caring about workers to caring about rich urbanites in yoga pants, this is the scenario you’d write, and your editor would kill it for being a little too on-the-nose.

Per IRCC data, Canada handed out 682,060 international study permits in 2023. Impossible to do anything other than the most basic vetting. Anyway, as I’ve said before, this is how the Trudeau government has destroyed Canada’s consensus on immigration theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

Deeply concerning. What sort of background checks are happening with any temp resident, including refugee claimants?

Pierre Poilievre says he will cap Canada's immigration numbers until the housing supply catches up. Then the cap will be tied to housing starts and builds. Do you agree with this?

Nice drop in mortgage rates last week. WOWA.ca is a great source for rate information.

No longer a crazy, fringe idea. Sad to say, but our immigration system has become such a mess, I’d hear this out.

SHUT THIS PROGRAM DOWN NOW Fraud is rampant Find these "recruiters" and jail them for fraud. They have sold out their fellow Canadians theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

Ben Rabidoux My long-time barber who runs her own shop says that she has been offered $50k+ cash to file for foreign workers. She is conscientious and did not agree. I imagine many biz owners are not like her. With little enforcement, it must be tempting to agree.

Is Canadian housing a bubble? As Hanif shows here, it depends on the denominator. Takeaway: don't hold cash too long. Own scarce assets.
