@@jhk6205 this is caused by over-tolerance. It does not matter if it's a Turban or whatever. It starts by first speaking English in public. In my opinion you need to reach a certain minimum level of proficiency in ESL before being granted citizenship or whatnot. I'm also shocked that non-citizens are allowed to vote in local elections. This is insane. Go to Markham, many streets are all Chinese. One guy drives a BMW and does IT and barely speaks English, meanwhile 6 other people at home and nobody speaks a word of English. Those neighbourhoods make you feel like a foreigner in your own country. It has reached insanity levels. If you don't plan to assimilate then GTFO!
You seriously think that if regulations and fees were lowered that houses and food would become cheaper? What a fool! Corporations would just use the difference to fatten up their wallets.
@@apscoradiales - you sound just like Jagmeet. Competition is what brings prices down, so obviously there's not enough of that if prices are high. To get more competitors, you need Supply Side economics, to create more consumer choice. Otherwise, what's your solution?
@@manofsan Here is one partial solution to housing issues. Anyone who owns more than one residence in which they do not live should be taxed 100% of the market value every year This would eliminate speculators, and would open up the market a bit to people who cannot afford even a downpayment for a place of their own. I don't know much about Jagmeet, but I did like one of his earlier moves when he called Quebec a racist place right in the House of Commons. He got kicked out right away for saying that, but he was bang on, 100% correct. So, to that end I have huge respect for him for speaking the truth. No other Canadian politician has the guts to come out and say things that are true. They are all BS'ers. Otherwise, I don't know much about him or his policies.
Even they did try, everything they do is so ingenious… fake and cringe. Thanks you guys for doing what you do, I pray Conservatives will get this country back on track… even if it will take decades, we need to start somewhere
These are just gimmicks to gain vote bank. We do know the condition of country and people, don't need these talks from party leaders. They cannot better up the damage done already. It will take years.
Yes!!!!! We need MASS deportations. Not just for housing but for our streets to be safe again. For our communities to be harmonious. No one is integrating or assimilating. We’re living in parallel societies. I feel like a stranger in my own country for gods sake!!
It'll cost millions (or even be billions) to even try. It's like Roach Motel. Canada never had to deal with mass deportations like in the U.S. CBSA also needs addition funding and support. Many of these people have entire communities supporting them to they don't need legal documentation to work or own a home. I've seen it myself the only legal person in the family puts everything in their names.
@@makerKID5 BS, plenty of patriots will volunteer for free. Surrender yourself = get a flight back to Punjab. If the bounty hunter finds you = get dumped on a cargo ship back to Punjab. The telecom companies know who's still in the country. Gov't can force em to turnover consumer data (just names and addresses.) Wonder if gov't can force telecoms to cancel services to those overstaying. Meanwhile, impose large fines on employers and landlords harbouring illegals (implies they MUST do due diligence on their employees/tenants first)
There are places around the World where taxes are much higher than in Canada. Switzerland comes to mind, so does Austria. What's the health care like in Canada compared to Switzerland or in the EU? What's the value of one Canadian dollarr compared to one Swiss Frank? Just for your info, back in the early seventies one frank was 54 cents canadian. Now, it's about $1.64 Canadian. How many wheatfields does Switzerland have, and how many does just Saskatchewan have? How much oil does Alberta have, and how much does Switzerland have? How many seas or oceans encompass Switzerland, and how many encompass Canada? How many forests does Canada have, and how many does Switzerland? What's the average salary in Switzerland, and what is it is Canada? No, I tell you; Canada is a waste of space, and Canadians are maroons of greatest proportions! So much potential here, and yet were are headed to the botttom. Argentina, even now, looks a lot more promising, a lot more than Canada does. How did we ever get there?!
Incredible work Michelle, fantastic video and very enlightening conversation. Your tenacity and diligence on these key issue is truly admirable. Thank you for your work to make Canada the great country it once was. Bring it home! 🇨🇦
You have my support, three people froze to death last week in Thunder bay,Ontario in tents and it hasn't even reached -30 yet! We have the liberals to thank for this, what a horrible thing, these people who died outside are Canadian citizens, what have we become 😢 we need to get our priorities in order asap.
Michelle, my sister was in a pool tournament in London two weeks ago. They stayed at the Hilton. There were many "New People" lined up with bags that said property of the USA. I am tired of my taxes going for this.
The Hilton downtown? Were they ilegal in the USA now funded by Canada? Michelle what can be done? London has so many homeless and ppl defecating on streets, sidewalks, begging for food, money in the middle of traffic, etc.
All by design. Canadians should start telling the truth about Markles and the links of all kinds of mistreatment and coverup. There is a much darker system that has ran for too long. Plenty of Canadians were taking advantage of it for self-interest. Warned and reported to repeatedly and individuals made their own poor decisions. Now many are complaining without having courage to really go to address the uncomfortable or Canada will continue to get shafted. Mainstream was gate keeping and manipulating authorities to protect criminals. Real talk.
When governments decided that housing should be an investment instead of just shelter it was the beginning of the end for affordability in this country.
True.. focus more on industry investment, increase in productivity to get required country GDP. Just don’t only depend on housing for gdp. With the above some solutions, it will take years to fix this issue. The worst challenge is how to restore confidence in this country and any party that will be government.
@@Melody4everlove Trudeau needs to go. He's screwed up Canada in a lot of ways, but he plays softball with municipal governments that price-gouge developers on fees with impunity. The worst offenders should have all their federal funding removed until they can reduce fees to the point that building affordable housing is possible again. Poilievre's plan is the only one that has a chance of producing results at the municipal level.
Its all Canadians fault , we just allow this criminal to do what he wants unchecked. He owns the law. We need to do something together as a collective . We all need to go back to Ottawa 10 times as big.
I wouldn't worry about the immigrants. Trudeau has destroyed so much of Canada that they wont stay. Trudeau has lied to a lot of new immigrants painting an unrealistic picture of Canada. Trudeau brought them in for cheap labor. Once they got here and saw how expensive it is to live in Canada, they are starting to leaving. Pretty sad when our Country was built on immigration and now its not fit for them to stay. Wait until Trump gets in. Canada needs to wake up and start investing in itself and become pound again. "Make Canada great again"
Great discussion. Keep up the good work Michelle. Builders costs passed on to owners were very well explained. Government spending is the main problem but I would say there are many things to address across the board. The government will never do it...but Step 1. End Reno-victions immediately...unless rent is not paid. Step 2. Hard stop on immigration until we get ahead of housing. Then much more control of immigration with background checks before anyone else comes to Canada. Step 3. Stop allowing company ownership of single family homes. (Everything from speculators, developers, flippers to registered numbered small businesses to huge corporations). Step 4. Stop foreign ownership of single family homes, cottages and low and medium density housing (duplexes, townhomes) unless they plan to live in them. Let Canadians be the land owners and rent to visitors. Time to protect our own. Step 5. Incentives (lower development fees and taxes) to build more medium density homes and neighbourhoods for families...and make sure the savings is passed on to buyers. Step 6. Let the developers and corporate investors invest in multifamily apartments and condos. Force them to build more until demand levels out and prices creep down...under the threat of "rent control" on existing properties if they don't. Step 7. End municipal government cash grabs. Development fees are out of control. Step 8. We also need to stop sales tax on new homes and land transfer tax on existing homes. Also stop linking property tax to property value. Unfortunately, skyrocketing home prices are like a lottery win for municipalities, so they have no incentive to stop it. Taxes Should be based on size of lot, size of home and number of people living in it, as well as municipal services provided (like police, like snow removal, recreation facilities etc.) not bureaucracy. In short...Do something for "the people" and stop sitting on your hands.
You are awesome, Michelle. Thank you, Michelle and Scott, for this frank discussion on housing. Communication is so vital…the average Canadian is not aware of the taxation of the cost of building new homes. This video is eye opening.
Michelle, while you channel does not have the number of "likes" other channels have, remember that we are watching you and we are grateful for your work. It is just that "Mouse on the Loose" channel feels.more entertaining at the end of you work day. And at the end end of the day, we still have to go to work every day.
I wonder when the last time (if ever) that Hadju took a drive around Thunder Bay to have a look at the devastation her government has taken its toll on our city.
l like listening to this side. You people are smart and speak to educate me. Thank You. I love your spirit and drive. Thank You. Keep up the great work. You got my vote. Merry Christmas.
How does temporary workers on visas leaving the country open million of homes? Do they own homes currently here and will have to sell? Or maybe you are saying something about the decrease in rental demand positively affecting the availability in the housing market?
Why would anyone borrow money because someone told them too. People have to start thinking for themselves and don’t believe everything they are told. There isn’t a lot of politicians I trust but I admit I trust you. Michelle keep up the awesome work you do. MERRY CHRISTMAS
People need a house like the kind I grew up in. A 3 bedroom bungalow on a nice lot. And they need it to be priced at around $350,000. Max! We don't need monster mansions and who the hell wants to live in stacked townhouses? We need places like the ones built in the 50's! The ones that made neighbours and neighbourhoods!
Wouldn't it be amazing that Liberals actually have to answer what they themselves would do if they were trying to survive in a tent in the winter. They'd refuse to answer the question. This drive Michelle through your neighborhood is much like so many places across Canada and we definitely nees to see more of this up close reality exposures. Much appreciated 🌊💙🇨🇦💌
Send the immigrants home. If you want Canadians working, then ensure that employers are not being rewarded by employing TFW by having wage subsidies. You should be giving subsidies to companies who hire Canadians! Get rid of all the DEI bs.
Don't simply retire from something; have something to retire to. Start saving, keep saving, and stick to investments. Everyone should have BTC in their portfolio
It’s really heartbreaking to see how inflation and recession impact low-income families. The cost of living keeps rising, and many struggle just to meet basic needs, let alone save or invest. It’s a reminder of the importance of finding ways to create financial opportunities. You've helped me a lot sir Robert! Imagine i invested $50,000 and received $190,500 after 14 days
Some persons think inves'tin is all about buying stocks; I think going into the stock market without a good experience is a big risk, that's why I'm lucky to have seen someone like mr Robert L Cox.
I have good experience work in medical laboratory, I got two diplomas in Canada too.but I couldn't find a job yet, I have disability and I receive odsp but I like to work and be independent,I can't rent an apartment because I don't have job , when will this government change? God bless you and just I can't wait for conservative government.✌
It's wonderful to see actual real conversation about what the issues are in this country. What the current liberal government doesn't understand is the concept of sustainability... You can't have growth without first being able to sustain what you have. With all of the waste in government we can't sustain anything for very long.
I'm glad you are shining a light on our community Michelle, something needs to be done... not just in Peterborough but all across our great country. Canadians are suffering at the hands of our over bloated government bureaucracy.
The focus for these ppl should be to lower rental costs, none of them are looking to buy homes, most just need a roof over their heads, there needs to be some enforcement for rentals, Doug Ford allows this to happen, we need affordable rent, most of us!
I love you Michelle…your videos teach us so much about government…the problems but also the solutions…very common sense…and very hopeful…transparency is a must…you don’t talk down to people…when the Conservatives get in we will be in good hands…it will take a lot of hard work and time to fix …but it will get done..thank you…♥️….and just so you know I pray🙏 for our country and the leadership…God make Canada 🇨🇦 great again…True North Strong and Free..
The norm is becoming 10-30 people living in one home so it can be afforded. Happens in many other countries. Seems this lifestyle has been imported here. What a shame!
Great point re too much government bureaucracy driving up the price of housing. Trudeau has Canada on its knees in every sense. More socialized housing programs will be the final blow to destroy the housing market and the economy. Government needs to be radically downsized and the economy needs to be brought back through the middle class and small business owners. We have companies like Blackrock, Vanguard and State Street controlling almost 90% of the stock market and our GDP. They own or control almost EVERY manufacturer of food, airlines, rail, banks, energy etc. How was this allowed to happen and why does nobody talk about it??
@ thanks it’s pretty COLD out . Wish I was anywhere but in this country. I’m an RN and sitting for multiple surgeries to save my life. I’ve lost YEARS OF MY LIFE WAITING IM GETTING BEDSORES. I WISH I NEVER BECAME A NURSE AND HELPED ANYONE IN THIS COUNTRY ITS DESPICABLE .

Michelle I hope you showed this gentleman the homeless encampment that Ptb council okd in supplying the containers for the camp + handing out cheques that we citizens are paying thru our taxes. This Council needs to be replaced ASAP.
One key problem is public service union greed, government greed and large corporate greed not paying enough entry level jobs a living wage .... entry full time wages should be MINIMUM 26 an hour coast to coast or 50k per year.... income tax also needs to be exempt from workers making under 50k.
7:09 fewer skilled trades people for sure. Should talk about Fleming college cancelling high demand skilled trades programs like Heavy Equipment Technician that has been the best in the province for 53 years. 53 years of turning people into tax payers in a high demand industry. Zap - gone.
Michelle is so great! And I really like Scott Atchison! These are 2 dynamic people. Thank you both for the opportunity to hear the truth of what happened to the demise of our housing market.
*Glory!!! After so much struggles I now own a new house with an income of $330,000.00 every month God has kept to his words, my family is happy again everything is finally falling into place.*
Tiny homes are one answer, Tesla homes for only 15 grand, just take away the waste and every real Canadian can have a home. Thank you Mitchell for everything you do.
For all first time buyers No GST & 30 year mortgages at 2% held with CMCH. We do not need to lower our standards. Our Government needs to step up for our young people.
@@BrendaMcLaughlin-xe5dj Not everyone wants or needs a mortgage, some do nt want any debt. And tiny houses do NOT lower standards, they can be very luxurious.
Finally someone is saying it! Another area of concern is the need for more skilled trades workers. We need shop classes back in every school, more support for apprenticeship training and workers.
Its insane that a Syrian immigrant got a knee replacement on arrival to canada so he could work in construction. But he never worked. I was born in Canada and when i needed a knee replacement i was told i was to young. But they did give me opiods for years so i could work. Then they abruptly cut me off when they realized i was addicted. Canada ruined my life.
Another problem is people cannot get permits to build their own homes. They are forced to deal with contractors who have cornered the market and are gouging people. I have a rural property in BC and I cannot build because there are only 3 contractors in the area and all three want 400 thousand dollars to build for us...thats above the cost of materials...The materials cost for the house we have approved is just under 300 thousand.
......And we brought in too many people from other countries to work for minimum wage. Every company in the country has contributed to the problem too. Canada NEVER had a "worker shortage"!!!
As a single, divorced mom, teacher, at 40, I bought a very old house in 2007. It was do-able. It became expensive, so, I sold it and bought a condo. Then, my son was going to college and needed to take the train... our train was shut down in 2020 to build the REM...still not ready. I sold my condo in Feb., 2020 for nothing.. moved to a rental near a metro...then .. covid hit. My son got very ill and we moved back to our home town into another rental. Now I may not be able to retire. I'm in my late 50s. I can no longer afford a condo or house. So, it's young and old, depending on how the cards landed.
Driving is a great way to have a good chat. I don't understand why municipalities are so antagonistic and weird about what they develop. It seems like nobody wants what they are approving or zoning for. Has anyone audited the bank accounts of councillors?
Fix Canada first before any money goes to any other countries

This is sad 🎉Canada 🇨🇦 is broken. I really believe in conservatives
Make lots sense
Send the 5 mil packing - housing crisis solved - get the teenagers out of the basement and get them to work .
People need a house like the kind I grew up in. A 3 bedroom bungalow on a nice lot. And they need it to be priced at around $350,000. Max! We don't need monster mansions and who the hell wants to live in stacked townhouses? We need places like the ones built in the 50's! The ones that made neighbours and neighbourhoods!
Michelle thank you for doing what you do 🙏❤️🙏
Wouldn't it be amazing that Liberals actually have to answer what they themselves would do if they were trying to survive in a tent in the winter. They'd refuse to answer the question. This drive Michelle through your neighborhood is much like so many places across Canada and we definitely nees to see more of this up close reality exposures. Much appreciated 🌊💙🇨🇦💌
They never answer any questions!
I learned a lot from this video, thank you
Thank you for pointing this out in this format.
Send the immigrants home. If you want Canadians working, then ensure that employers are not being rewarded by employing TFW by having wage subsidies. You should be giving subsidies to companies who hire Canadians! Get rid of all the DEI bs.
These homes are massive Canada needs more three bedroom starter homes
I support this message 👍,VOTE CONSERVATIVE.
Don't simply retire from something; have something to retire to. Start saving, keep saving, and stick to investments. Everyone should have BTC in their portfolio
It’s really heartbreaking to see how inflation and recession impact low-income families. The cost of living keeps rising, and many struggle just to meet basic needs, let alone save or invest. It’s a reminder of the importance of finding ways to create financial opportunities. You've helped me a lot sir Robert! Imagine i invested $50,000 and received $190,500 after 14 days
Absolutely! Profits are possible, especially now, but complex transactions should be handled by experienced market professionals.
Some persons think inves'tin is all about buying stocks; I think going into the stock market without a good experience is a big risk, that's why I'm lucky to have seen someone like mr Robert L Cox.
Finding yourself a good broker is as same as finding a good wife, which you go less stress, you get just enough with so much little effort at things
Cox demonstrates an excellent understanding of market trends, making well informed decisions that leads to consistent profit
The last thing government should do is raise taxes. They must learn to find efficiencies first because Canadians are broke 💔🇨🇦🤔
Holy shit, these two must be the stupidest politicians in all of Canada. If this is our next government, we're fucked.
Im in love with Michelle now lol shes so sweet and cool and thoughtful and intelligent.
Her guest is great too.
Amazing content thanks Michelle and Scott 😊
Canadians also desperately need more rental homes (affordable rents )
Investors and REITs are a huge problem. There needs to be purchasing caps as well as rent caps.
Well cons screwed up rentals by taking away rental caps.
@mamabear2304 if you believe rent caps are the problem things will never get better.
Great content. Keep up the amazing work Michelle. Canada could use more MP's like you.
Thank You. I saw a video on Helsinki, they have no homeless problem and managed drug issues. l want that in my city. lt is a great idea.
I have been to peterborough many time I love the swing bridge for the train yes pp for priminister
I lived through Trudeau 1 and it was hard, but this is way worse than Pierre Trudeau era. His son does not have a clue what he is doing
Nah his son know what he's doing, He's more evil than the last Trudeau.
I have good experience work in medical laboratory, I got two diplomas in Canada too.but I couldn't find a job yet, I have disability and I receive odsp but I like to work and be independent,I can't rent an apartment because I don't have job , when will this government change?
God bless you and just I can't wait for conservative government.✌
Thank you to both of you❤❤
YES. No outdoor pickleball courts!
Explained very well. Thank-you
It's wonderful to see actual real conversation about what the issues are in this country. What the current liberal government doesn't understand is the concept of sustainability... You can't have growth without first being able to sustain what you have. With all of the waste in government we can't sustain anything for very long.
Reduce housing pressure by sending back about 5M to 7M to where they came from
"We're gonna fix it, because we have to" ... Yes.
My morning positivity pill. Thank you, Michelle! Love your Canadian gal attitude. With you were in BC. Keep up the good work. ❤
I'm glad you are shining a light on our community Michelle, something needs to be done... not just in Peterborough but all across our great country. Canadians are suffering at the hands of our over bloated government bureaucracy.
How is there THOUSANDS OF ENCAMPMENTS IN ONTARIO ?? Why are jeets the priority ??
We are Taxed BEYOND COMPREHENSION ! This needs to STOP ! 🤬
The focus for these ppl should be to lower rental costs, none of them are looking to buy homes, most just need a roof over their heads, there needs to be some enforcement for rentals, Doug Ford allows this to happen, we need affordable rent, most of us!
I love you Michelle…your videos teach us so much about government…the problems but also the solutions…very common sense…and very hopeful…transparency is a must…you don’t talk down to people…when the Conservatives get in we will be in good hands…it will take a lot of hard work and time to fix …but it will get done..thank you…♥️….and just so you know I pray🙏 for our country and the leadership…God make Canada 🇨🇦 great again…True North Strong and Free..
Great video!!
the govt has too many middle managers who do very little like you said dont need twelve to do the work of two lets bring it home
First and foremost...vote out all liberals & ndp's from office !!!!!
The norm is becoming 10-30 people living in one home so it can be afforded. Happens in many other countries. Seems this lifestyle has been imported here. What a shame!
Great point re too much government bureaucracy driving up the price of housing. Trudeau has Canada on its knees in every sense. More socialized housing programs will be the final blow to destroy the housing market and the economy. Government needs to be radically downsized and the economy needs to be brought back through the middle class and small business owners. We have companies like Blackrock, Vanguard and State Street controlling almost 90% of the stock market and our GDP. They own or control almost EVERY manufacturer of food, airlines, rail, banks, energy etc. How was this allowed to happen and why does nobody talk about it??
I’m
Gonna be homeless tomorrow. I’ve begged for help for over a year
I hope you get help from someone. Remember you have to do whatever you can to survive. Remember who did this to you and fight hard.

Michelle I hope you showed this gentleman the homeless encampment that Ptb council okd in supplying the containers for the camp + handing out cheques that we citizens are paying thru our taxes. This Council needs to be replaced ASAP.
Beautiful Michelle 🤗❤️🙏🏾🇨🇦🌹✨
GREAT DISCUSSION! COMMON SENSE!!!
Strolling around in a 100k Jeep.
One key problem is public service union greed, government greed and large corporate greed not paying enough entry level jobs a living wage .... entry full time wages should be MINIMUM 26 an hour coast to coast or 50k per year.... income tax also needs to be exempt from workers making under 50k.
Stop sending our money to other countries
We are as ready for change as USA just expressed. We want that dead weight gone...bring in an adult leader
No system in Canada is 'broken.' We hear that too often,
The system's are not broken....they are corrupt..
7:09 fewer skilled trades people for sure. Should talk about Fleming college cancelling high demand skilled trades programs like Heavy Equipment Technician that has been the best in the province for 53 years. 53 years of turning people into tax payers in a high demand industry. Zap - gone.
Michelle is so great! And I really like Scott Atchison! These are 2 dynamic people. Thank you both for the opportunity to hear the truth of what happened to the demise of our housing market.
*Glory!!! After so much struggles I now own a new house with an income of $330,000.00 every month God has kept to his words, my family is happy again everything is finally falling into place.*
That's awesome!!! I know nothing about investment and I'm kind on getting started. What are your strategies?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. I'm guided by a widely known crypto professional.
Thanks to mrs Angelia Marie brown.
I'm surprised that this same name is being mentioned here, I stumbled upon one of his clients testimonies on CNBC news last week.
Tiny homes are one answer, Tesla homes for only 15 grand, just take away the waste and every real Canadian can have a home. Thank you Mitchell for everything you do.
Waste = Lndp
For all first time buyers No GST & 30 year mortgages at 2% held with CMCH. We do not need to lower our standards. Our Government needs to step up for our young people.
@@BrendaMcLaughlin-xe5dj Not everyone wants or needs a mortgage, some do nt want any debt. And tiny houses do NOT lower standards, they can be very luxurious.
@@BrendaMcLaughlin-xe5dj Tiny houses are very sustainable for low income people, lower utilities and lower taxes, and no to little debt.
Indeed, Canada is the best country in the world.
Send 5 million temporary visa holders home when their visas are up that's a lot of rooms for rent
Finally someone is saying it! Another area of concern is the need for more skilled trades workers. We need shop classes back in every school, more support for apprenticeship training and workers.
Thank you for your service 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦
Thankyou Michelle
Its insane that a Syrian immigrant got a knee replacement on arrival to canada so he could work in construction. But he never worked.
I was born in Canada and when i needed a knee replacement i was told i was to young. But they did give me opiods for years so i could work. Then they abruptly cut me off when they realized i was addicted.
Canada ruined my life.
Thank you Michelle for your strong and intelligent voice for Canadians! Bring it home!
Michelle: “Government is a make-work project.”
I couldn’t agree more, Michelle. But don’t stop there, go all the way.
#taxationistheft
$4.4 million for pickleball with people living in tents? That would build some much needed shelters.
Seasonal pickled balls ,
Great comments from Canadians here. Michelle keep up the great work! Your making a difference in so many ways.
Smaller government and less consultants that get paid 100,s of Millions and Billions of dollars
Another problem is people cannot get permits to build their own homes. They are forced to deal with contractors who have cornered the market and are gouging people. I have a rural property in BC and I cannot build because there are only 3 contractors in the area and all three want 400 thousand dollars to build for us...thats above the cost of materials...The materials cost for the house we have approved is just under 300 thousand.
Yes Canada needs skilled trades people more than it needs farmers or baristas.
@@RyanEvans-z8t It just doesnt take that much skill to build a house these days its all pretty standard and straight forward actually
......And we brought in too many people from other countries to work for minimum wage. Every company in the country has contributed to the problem too. Canada NEVER had a "worker shortage"!!!
As a single, divorced mom, teacher, at 40, I bought a very old house in 2007. It was do-able. It became expensive, so, I sold it and bought a condo. Then, my son was going to college and needed to take the train... our train was shut down in 2020 to build the REM...still not ready. I sold my condo in Feb., 2020 for nothing.. moved to a rental near a metro...then .. covid hit. My son got very ill and we moved back to our home town into another rental. Now I may not be able to retire. I'm in my late 50s. I can no longer afford a condo or house. So, it's young and old, depending on how the cards landed.
Driving is a great way to have a good chat.
I don't understand why municipalities are so antagonistic and weird about what they develop. It seems like nobody wants what they are approving or zoning for. Has anyone audited the bank accounts of councillors?
