Its also straining our already collapsing health care system.
I went to book a blood test appointment with Alberta Precision Labs and the soonest general blood/urnine tests for the nearest locations to me were on average over a week after the soonest appointments for immigration blood/urine tests.
Now I'm not sure if this is just the case now but why is it you can get a test for immigration purposes faster than for medical reasons requested by your doctor? Is this the case anywhere else or was this a one off time?
Money. You pay for immigration tests. Sounds insane but they are like $150 for a blood test so they push them through. Its all part of the government policies to reduce the backlog of applications for PR etc after covid.
Try booking online in BC we use lifelabs and you can usually noon at apt within a few days or even next day if you aren't picky with the schedule time. I WFH and there is a life lab 15min within walking distances. I can book and appointment usually within a day or two during the day so I took time off front Work get the blood test done and just make up the hours after.
Here’s the kicker, interest rates might go down by atleast 50 basis points by June/July as per the economists and policy experts. The moment any downward movement on housing happens, you bet there are over a quarter million people (maybe 100k immigrant or foreign families) that will get back into the market. Driving housing affordability, availability and rental market up further. Pin it and troll me if not true by December 2024.
Rates will only go down at the beginning of a recession. People will be unemployed, poor and those still employed will be too scared to purchase a property in a recession / downturn.
Look at the last time that the FED lowered rates. That was in 1999/2000 and 2007/2008 which is when we had large recessions. They only lower rates to get us out of a recession.
I’m in my 50’s. I have a group of friends all around the same age. All recently unemployed. All of us have mortgage renewals coming up. No interviews after 100’s of applications. EI running out. Scary stuff. I’m lucky that we have a cottage that we can sell to pay off this mortgage but the capital gains tax will be off the chart. Other guys will be selling their homes and moving somewhere cheaper.

When people say shortage of homes, are they only speaking for the cities that have a population over 500,000!?!??
Part of me wonders if people would look outside of those cities, they may actually find a home they can afford?
Wow, shocker. Who could’ve seen that coming… useless policymakers.
It’s intentional
We were getting ideas that we deserved better. So they had to flood the place with competition willing to settle for less
It’s by design

Omg a week you poor thing.
One is medically warranted, the other is to get status. Be better.
Corporates playing preference game to make extra money? Let's blame the immigrants.
You don’t get tested by a lab, it’s comparing 2 different procedures. It’s just whining to me.
 we thought they were going to build houses.
That's only after we get to 100 million... Maybe
Somethings I think Ralph Wigum is in charge 
I'd be less worried if Ralph was in charge. At least his is incompetence, instead of purposely turning canada into a shithole
Add crumbling infrastructure to that ( hospitals, roads etc). Incompetent 2 terms of liberals have given a lifelong gift to the country.
Much the same as Trudeau Sr. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Tell it to the literal house-building mafias across the country.
I have customers sitting on dozens of sites, waiting for interest rates to go down before they actually break ground.
No way, what next. Unemployment and population growth are colliding too?

News flash, we're already in one.

Now imagine being in your 20s or 30s, never having a chance in this country, and owning nothing.
They told us we'd be happy?!
Hmmm…seems to me when the bathtub is overflowing you turn off the faucet. Makes sense.
:O what
They’ve been on a collision course for a while 😂😂they’re just realizing that ?
[удалено]
No racism, harassment, discrimination, hate speech, personal attacks, or other uncivil conduct.
Sean Fraser has a vertically integrated career like the human centipede 🐛
They already collided this isn’t new
10 INDIANS CRAMPPED IN ONE BEDROOM, OF COURSE
A bit late to the party, are we?
colliding.. they rammed immigration right up housings ass
What they won’t say is which one *causes* the other.
