I full on snorted at my desk. Not surprised.
It isn't as bad for people in the middle and upper end of the income spectrum. Young people too can make Victoria or Vancouver work for them quite easily. For me, $1475 to live 200m away from an ocean is a dream that I never considered possible in land-locked Alberta.
The real concern is obviously the working poor, which have all but disappeared from anywhere west of Burnaby.
