It was not the federal government that explicitly said this (emphasis explicitly) but rather an MP for Vaughn in Ontario. His name is Adam Vaughan and he said this two weeks or so ago. https://betterdwelling.com/canada-says-property-bubble-not-great-for-locals-good-for-foreign-investors/ https://betterdwelling.com/canada-says-property-bubble-not-g... Yes, BetterDwelling is a permabear but Vaughan's comments are legitimate. He said it in an interview with TVO. On another note, the 30% number seems ridiculous. And, yet, do not be surprised if Canadians seriously believe this. Remember, people have been screaming bubble for a decade, and there has been no such pop yet. Of course, I think this is unsustainable. At 6-12% growth rate you're looking at like low to mid 8 figure values...for the average home. At 15-30% you're looking at hundreds of millions of dollars over 30 years. Ridiculous, isn't it? Interesting discussion on the Financial Times comments section about young people feeling insecure also highlights this property inflation. Basically, the AngloSphere has decided to inflate assets and forget about industrious activity. In the long run, you just end up with a hollow, low productivity and low social mobility country. Is this acceptable? Well, Canadians aren't voting against it. Of course, this is because they think they are getting richer. In reality, the country is just heavily indebted and consuming tomorrow's income today. I am keeping most of my savings down south with the Americans and their equity market. If the BoC can keep the bonanza going, so can the Americans.
