Bill Maher, host of "Real Time with Bill Maher" (HBO) recently used Canada as an example of what America has to be worried about becoming. Bill poked the bear. If he were Canadian he would have realized you don't poke bears. Ever.

What a communist point of view of housing, shameful. The Healthcare in Canada is terrible, you can never get an appointment with a specialist, the timeframe for being to see a physician is easily north of 6 months. Canada has gone completely woke under its current government. Better to be honest about one’s problems rather than finding lame excuses

INACCURATE!!! Toronto General Hospital as well as five other hospitals in Toronto were voted in the top 50 in the world with Toronto General Hospital being number 3...behind two US hospitals. I have recently had a serious health issue and I saw a specialist within two weeks. I have had free Endoscopies, Colonscopies, Abdominal Ultrasound, Liver Biopsy, Massive Amounts of Bloodwork.......all at no cost to me. The machines that they used were all brand new. The staff some of the best in the world....many immigrants. Sick of all this B.S. about our healthcare system. Most of you get sick and don't even use it,,,,until it's too late.

I'm with you but for your denying a link between population growth and housing prices. And no, it's not the "foreigners fault", it's simply true that supply/demand realities are relevant in the housing sector, as they are in other sectors. Not that demand growth is the only problem here, supply issues have certainly contributed as well. But it's clear that our federal government failed to anticipate and prepare for the varied affects of such a population explosion. It may have also underestimated the total growth of resident population from all sources (including international students, asylum seekers). I've bristled every time federal government ministers have tried down deflect criticism over their policy failures with the incendiary line "don't blame 'the foreigners'". Exactly who is blaming "the foreigners"? The foreigners don't set our immigration targets or population policies (to the extent we have any). And it bears emphasis that our predicament comes down to total numbers of people, not their origins. If our population surge came from high domestic fertility rates rather than immigration we'd still face major challenges. (Ask any boomer about the downsides of rapid population growth.) So again, "foreigners" are not to blame in this instance, but our policymakers sure are. Canada can and should continue to welcome significant numbers of immigrants for all kinds of reasons...and with fertility rates hovering around 1.5 children/woman we can do so, to a point, without suffering major growth pains. But it's time to get real and do our homework re the diverse economic, social and (especially) environmental effects of surging population growth - because the total numbers matter, they always have and always will.

Housing costs are high because people are paying high costs for a house. It is capitalism, but more specifically, supply and demand. Opening the flood gates to immigrants, which we do need for the labor market, is undoubtably adding demand. Also, we don't have a health care system. The walk in clinics have burnt out doctors who never get a diagnosis correct. In northern B.C. we are sending people home from the hospitals to die because we don't have the beds, doctors, or equipment to treat them....I don't want people to loose a house to get access to helathcare, but lets not pretend we don't have people loosing access to helathcare to preserve our existing system. We. Need . Reform

I have a family doctor though which is definitely a huge advantage then having to schedule appointments etc. with a random doctor you'll see at a walk-in clinic or hospital emergency.
