One-third of B.C. residents thinking of leaving province 

Christy Clark and the Liberals, and all of the city councilors who caved to NIMBY homeowners.

Really have you gone any of the Facebook rental sites for Saskatchewan and Alberta. Landlords are charging the same prices as here. They are seeing the rich B.C. people moving their provinces and want to cash in. I know someone that sold her townhouse in B.C. and brought a house out right in Alberta and pocketed a bit money from the sale. She said if did this two years she would have pocket a million dollars from the sale of this townhouse. By the way those provinces have conservative governments

​@@ravinhairgirl88are you seriously going to try to defend the socialist policies of places like urban BC and Ontario, which are directly responsible for our cost of living crisis I urge you to educate yourself before dipping your toe into that pool, because based on your comment, you'll be absolutely destroyed in your attempt to do so. The person you replied to is exactly right. Communists and socialist are a cancer. They destroy one place, then flee their dumpster fires for "new opportunities" (rural communities), then vote in the same insane, self-righteous, virtue signaling, exclusionary policies that were in place in their previous communities. Literally every place that moves towards socialism is worse off as a result. Unfortunatly for anyone in the middle, or to the right of the political center are tolerant enough to allow people into their domains, despite the fact that many aim to change or destroy the established community and its principles.

ALL POLITICIANS ARE THE SAME. SAME 💩 DIFFERENT COLOUR. THEY ARE ALL THE SAME LIARS AND THIEVES

@@ravinhairgirl88 then don't come? Or save your money and put a down payment on property - you can still buy a FULL HOUSE for under 500k In Calgary. Leftists who tax everyone into the ground only make the problem worse EVERY single time. Aka my property tax going up 30% in 12 months. Which is almost entirely caused by the leftist lunatic Mayor Gyondick (the increase letter clearly separates provincial vs municipal)

Just wanted to mention that in Ireland, due to a migrant crisis, the government instantly conjured up hundreds of modular homes (nice, big, modern ones) and tried to drive them from Northern Ireland into Ireland as FREE ACCOMMODATION for migrants. Irish protesters managed to get them to turn back, but the point is that when a government wants to provide housing, it simply does it. What difference would a couple of million really nice modular homes make to the housing market in Canada? Interesting question, isn't it? They can be quickly mass-produced for well under $100,000 each.

Sure you were. Bot.

We get what we vote for. Once Trudeau took office we all knew tough times ahead and planned accordingly

My parents predicted Canada would end up like this, don’t think they expected it to be this extreme but as they say: like father like son. Trudeau SOMEHOW managed to be an even worse PM than his father. Canada is going to take decades to fix, it’s honestly so damn sad.

Well, ya'll need to vote better. My friend bought a house in Edmonton when he worked at Safeway full-time. I went to school going into debt. I have a higher paying job. After 7 years my student loans are paid but I still have a 15 year mortgage on a shitty noisy townhouse. He has a detached house that is worth 3 times what he paid.

All Canadian are being robbed. We're the 3rd worst country, of the 75 IMF has data on, for household debt vs GDP, mainly due to the never-ending housing crisis (that the Liberals are cool with, given that they've said that housing prices must remain high to protect boomer investments).

The same is true in every place people want to live. Basically there is no additional space except up, and up faces resistance from NIMBY types.

Our provincial and civic governments have sold us out. It’s absolutely disgusting.

Yup. I remember some years ago when Christy Clark was the premier, she was taking trips to China promoting investment in beautiful British Columbia. The rest is history

But who's gonna pour all the Lattes for the elected officials?

@mvpsoldier6364that’s true, however the majority of native Mexicans don’t live in the resort towns, where I’m assuming most Canadians would retire to. Canada is the exact opposite, almost our entire population lives in the major cities where all these immigrants are buying property. Buying a home in cabo isn’t going to raise the price in Mexico City.

Very true. I have had a condo south of Playa del Carmen for 8 years. There are no local people in the building. I have been going to Mexico for 20 years and I don't know of one Canadian that bought in Mexico City or any other city. We don't compete for the same product.

Immigrants are some a small fraction of the issues. You've been missing lead and are gullable to believe that's a major issue

Whitecourt.... The people in this video are probably going to move to central Edmonton or Calgary.

We had two solid weeks of below minus 40 this winter. It was BRUTAL. The heating costs were off the charts.

It's a cycle. Everyone is moving to Alberta. Everyone I meet says it's so much cheaper to live here. Specific to Edmonton. Although the reality is. In due time as everything with supply and demand. Everything will get jacked up in price. It already is a squeeze to live in this horrible city and I was born and raised here. I feel like once everyone leaves Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc. I myself will have to move to 1 of those cities once everyone leaves and things become more affordable due to the lack of people to support the economy.

Edmonton is a growing city with nothing to do and in the worst part of Alberta. All we have here is Hockey. Nothing else.

a bit cheaper is a huge understatement. For a family, an avg single detached house in Calgary is 700ks while it’s 2 MILLION in Vancouver.

@@HoangDuong-mi4ow True. But what surrounds that Vancouver house is 100X more valuable than what surrounds the Calgary house.

Where will you go

@mvpsoldier6364 reverse uno . Going to India. ;)

Inflation. If priced Gold, real estate is falling in value

is exactly the reason why it got high home pricing they dont want that! can be attributed to a multitude of factors. The city's massive population, high demand for housing, and limited supply have created a perfect storm of escalating costs. The presence of high-salary job opportunities, a booming economy, and world-class entertainment options have drawn people to the city, further fueling demand. Additionally, the city's high construction costs, taxes, and variety of public services have all contributed to the soaring prices.

​@@AuntyExpressBuild costs are also extremely high. Simply building a new house is going to cost close to a million, and that is before you even get to the cost of the land itself, which in Vancouver is sky high because supply is fixed and demand is growing.

In the seventies 1 million would buy 20 houses on the west side. Our house on elm was 45k. That’s why to us 60 somethings 1 million was an incredible amount of money. That ended quickly.

Unfortunately that's been the case for at least 15-16 years... I remember a news story on CTV vancouver back in 2010 i think featuring a doctor who was making 6 figures who couldn't afford a home because of the insane market back then.

That's that good old fashioned conservative compassion for you! Way to go! Your mother must be so proud.

@@craig5908 its people like you, who are ruining the country. You vote liberals/socialists in, taxes/waste/spending skyrocket, then you move to places like Alberta because you can no longer afford the situation you created, then vote for the same crap here. Now we have far left mayors in both major cities.

I’m so sorry for your experience losing affordable rent due to unscrupulous landlords. I have three friends in Victoria who were “renovicted” so new building owners (real estate investment trusts) could significantly raise rents. They all eventually found other housing but at much higher costs to them. Housing costs in BC are awful for many of us. Though I know there are also many in BC who profit handily as landlords, owning multiple dwellings.

@@bourbonlover7158 And those 260 people find out they can't afford to live in Alberta either.

Christy Clark and the Liberals ruled BC for a very long time, and affordability was terrible at that time as well. The problem is zoning at the municipal level. It's supply and demand. Too little supply, and NIMBY homeowners keeping it that way. It all starts in Vancouver and radiates outward to the whole province.

Alberta is great everybody’s going there yay👍👍👍👍👍👍

Possibly part of it but consumers did this to themselves when there were bidding wars on real estate. Never, ever pay more for something than what it is listed for or what it is worth. That drove prices up.

Possibly part of it but consumers did this to themselves when there were bidding wars on real estate. Never, ever pay more for something than what it is listed for or what it is worth. That drove prices up.

Actually, no. The problem stems from the fact that only 5% of BC land is privately owned. 95% of BC is 'crown land'. Government land. And they won't release it, creating a critical shortage and driving prices to the moon. The only jurisdictions with less private land ownership than BC are all communist.

to rectify this housing crisis is to undertake a thorough and comprehensive overhaul of the system those students. A major clean-up, if you will, to clear the way for a fresh start. The current state of affairs is akin to a tangled web, with bureaucratic red tape and outdated policies hindering progress.

No, the problem is people moving here from the interior or the prairies, bringing their twisted right wing ideology with them. Seriously, these people do nothing but complain all day.

And also Saskatchewan this ad from used Regina This is brand new renovated 5 bedrooms, 2 separated suites in a 2500 square feet full house. Everything are brand new.

@@Tugela60 statistics say otherwise

@@JasonXYT Actually they don't. About 60k people leave Alberta for other provinces annually on average, in BC the number is about 45k on average, even though the population of BC is higher. There are higher numbers moving to Alberta currently, but that is largely tied to how well the oil industry is doing, those numbers fluctuate wildly and Alberta frequently has significant population declines during periods when the economy is poor. This rarely happens in BC, which is the most stable province in the country with respect to population. Most of these migrations are driven by city to city work transfers, or by people moving from small rural towns to metropolitan urban areas in search of a better life.

We're trying, but getting the public's as well as the government's attention is like talking to the wall. The central issue? Only 5% of BC's land is privately owned. The other 95% is 'crown land' - land owned by the government. The only jurisdictions with a smaller percentage of privately owned land ARE ALL COMMUNIST. Says a lot about BC, doesn't it. Anyway, we're trying to bring the crown land issue forward and solve the housing affordability problem.
