The housing crisis is becoming global... somehow no country and no largeish city is spared (and sometimes not even smaller cities in smaller and shittier countries).
It's interestig how we're building a critical mass of people who are getting their calculations of future retirement income (social security or whatever), see the number they'll get when they retire, see the rent price and instantly become a member of "nothing left to lose" group... basically the most dangerous group for anyone who'll be blamed for any crisis...
Regarding canada specifically... I personally found it funny, how they called all the 'freedom truckers' nazis, and then cheered an actual nazi in the parliament... I mean... WWII is not some obscure thing that noone knows anything about, it doesn't take a lot of history knowledge to put two and two together to at last cast some questions about the side the guy was on. On the other hand, canada has some history with nazism and importing nazis after the war, but they managed to keep that pretty quiet.
