I think we stopped the housing crisis there long enough for it to start stabilizing or at least leveling. When I was there a month ago prices were actually on the rise in some areas for the first time in years.
Spare me the pseudo-altruism. Canadians should be content enough that they're savvy to buy RE at prices far less than replacement value and a few hours plane ride from -20 to +25 in the middle of February.

In bygone era in US history, this would be called "carpet bagging".
