The vast majority of 28% of Canadian households who are currently carrying a mortgage did not buy their house at peak bubble prices, i.e. within the last 3-4 years. They carry a much more modest debt load, have paid off more of their mortgage, and this will significantly dampen the effect of rising rates on their finance.
