They're often the same people who purchase a new build in a far out Calgary suburb in the $450-$600k range and then just precariously live their life with a big smile and good "appearance" just praying even one thing doesn't go wrong and blow it all up.

Uh. Yah the minute you bring up affordability is the minute I realize you are living pay check to pay check.
