Well, the tried and true scapegoat of foreign buyers ran out once they enacted heavy foreign buyer taxes in places like BC, then a complete ban on foreign buyers nation wide.
Low and behold that wasn't the driving factor
Without that blame card to play, people move on to the next closest thing, international students. As long as there's a coloured folk to blame, some people are content.
