A cross Canada poll, and the most talked about factor in the comments seems to be on foreign ownership. I wonder if the Liberal government is more likely to act on this than the Conservative one was. A change would effect Calgary somewhat, but Vancouver and Toronto would be the biggest change, obviously.
Quote:
"No fewer than 45 per cent in Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg, Montreal or Halifax view prices as either high or unreasonably high," Angus Reid said in a release accompanying the poll. Even in Calgary, where the ongoing economic downturn has slowed new construction and left analysts warning a market correction may be underway — nearly half of respondents said prices remain too high.
