New condo sales in Metro Vancouver are tracking even lower than last year, like 50% lower. The pre-sale condo market is completely dead.
Well that didn't take long. A new government gets elected and the Cowichan lawyer suddenly has a new proposal coming in January that will protect private property rights in the Richmond case. biv.com/news/cowichan-tribes…
The first thing a BC Conservative government should do is take the deal the Feds already offered them, a complete removal of the 5% GST on new housing.
Time to build.

Congrats to @LDoerkson, on a sweeping victory and the next premier of BC!
If you don’t know who Lorne is or what he stands for I had the pleasure of interviewing him in depth before the election.

Eby’s decision to call a snap election pretty much sums up the 4 years of his leadership. Total shit show.
Conservative majority called just 30 mins after the polls closed.

Hey B.C. Voters, I figured you should know what you’re getting with PC Leader Lorne Doerkson:
Years ago, I was living in a cabin and every pipe froze. He, his wife (and new baby) took me in on the spot. Wouldn’t accept rent. That’s who you’re voting for.
Residential mortgage credit growth remains anemic in Canada. Falling home prices and a stagnant economy means little demand for new mortgages.
Ok 24 units on a 7000sqft lot is bananas.
This is Vancouver's very first proposal to build a low-rise, multi-unit residential building on a small single-family lot under the new single-staircase building rules.
A 6-storey, wood-frame building with 24 family-sized units. #vanre #vanpoli

In 2 weeks (and it will be 7 months late), Canada will release their budget. And it will likely show a balanced (OPERATING) budget.
The MSM, and propaganda machines will gaslight you into believing the magic.
Here's National Bank's accounting for the magic.

Sir, you’re a city councillor.
Pave the roads, pick up the trash and maintain the community centers.
It’s a sad day when city officials turn this into a platform to spew woke ideologies instead of focusing on delivering core services for the community.
The self-proclaimed communist just got the most votes of any Vancouver city councillor, and that just about sums up this election.
Thanks for playing, comrades.
