Lets put it this way. The national average is now approx. $415,000.
In Toronto (close to where I live). Houses are around $700,000 *on average* whereas household incomes are around $70,000.
Its insane. The government keeps denying it. Oh well.
Living longer at home, I guess.

My daughter lives in Montreal. Oddly, rents are very cheap compared to Boston (where I live). But buying a condo is expensive, not as high as Boston, but pricey still.

Boston is very expensive from what I know from living in CT where it's very expensive also. Phillipa

Hi all. I started a petition to Boycott the Canadian Housing Market. I need some signatures to get this thing rolling.
You don't need to use a full or real name and your email is not shown. Signing means you will not buy a house in Canada for a 6 month period.
