The housing crisis is a sign of worse things to come

Description
The shocking political realities behind Canada’s badly broken housing market are sinking in — and the damage spreads much deeper and wider than the generations being unfairly priced out of starter homes. Ben Rabidoux, founder of Edge Realty Analytics, is the guy both federal Conservatives and Liberals turn to for deep housing insights. He joins Brian this week to discuss how waving in millions of temporary residents, many of them students, is causing far more harm — to us and them — than just wildly inflated rents. And he explains how the massive capital reallocation away from productive businesses into housing speculation could wreak havoc in the Canadian economy for many years to come.
