Canada's real estate market is entering one of the most consequential periods in a generation. Home prices have suffered their steepest correction on record, political scrutiny is intensifying around government intervention in the condo market, insolvencies remain near historic highs, and a major new land agreement could reshape decision-making across an area larger than Portugal.Start with housing prices. After experiencing the fastest appreciation in Canadian history, national home values have now recorded the sharpest decline ever measured. Prices fell 0.8% in the first quarter and 4.8% year-over-year. Since peaking in early 2022, nominal prices have dropped 20.1%, more than double the declines experienced during the late-1980s and early-1990s correction or the 2008 financial crisis.Adjust for inflation and the picture becomes even more dramatic. Real home prices are down 29.3% from the 2022 peak, effectively returning Canadian housing values to 2016 levels. That raises a critical issue for the roughly two-thirds of Canadians who own property: what catalyst could reverse the decline? Interest rates appear near the bottom of the current cycle, population growth is weakening, unemployment remains elevated and housing construction is still substantial. Without a meaningful shift in economic conditions, the road back may be difficult.Government intervention is already accelerating. British Columbia's controversial condo conversion program—widely labelled the “condo bailout”—remains under intense scrutiny. Conservative MPs sought a parliamentary ethics investigation into the proposed $1.45-billion initiative, calling for testimony from prominent industry figures, federal Housing Minister Gregor Robertson and developers connected to a 2026 fundraiser for Prime Minister Mark Carney.Questions intensified around the timing of meetings, fundraising activity, rising unsold condo inventory and business relationships involving major institutional players. A motion sought disclosure of which developers, projects and units could ultimately benefit from government purchases. One day later, Liberal MPs voted 5–4 against proceeding with the proposed committee investigation. For now, those questions remain unanswered.The debate arrives as new Statistics Canada research challenges another common narrative: that institutional investors dominate Canada's rental market. Using the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index—a widely recognized measure of market concentration, the study found all 12 metropolitan regions examined remained well below levels typically associated with excessive concentration.Individual “mom-and-pop” investors accounted for roughly 40% of rental supply, institutional investors just under 25%, and other multi-property investors approximately 35%. Despite legitimate limitations in the methodology, the findings suggest Canada's rental ownership landscape remains highly competitive by international standards, an important insight for smaller investors considering entering or expanding within the market.Financial stress, however, continues to build. Canada recorded 12,536 consumer and business insolvencies in May, making it the fourth-highest May on record. The number of active private-sector businesses has also declined year-over-year, while public-sector employment has expanded significantly faster than private-sector job creation since 2023. The result is an increasingly difficult environment for entrepreneurship, investment and economic growth.Finally, a major governance story is emerging in northern British Columbia. The province is reportedly negotiating a foundation agreement involving the Tahltan Nation and approximately 96,000 square kilometres, roughly 11% of B.C.'s landmass and an area larger than Portugal.The territory includes much of the mineral-rich Golden Triangle, home to major deposits of gold, copper, silver and other critical resources. At the centre of the debate is consent-based decision-making under B.C.'s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act. Supporters see a long-overdue shift toward meaningful reconciliation and Indigenous participation in decisions affecting traditional territories. Critics are raising questions about transparency, legislative oversight, resource development and the broader implications of transferring decision-making authority across such a vast and economically significant region.Taken together, these stories reveal a Canadian real estate landscape being reshaped on multiple fronts. Housing values have undergone a historic correction. Governments are intervening directly in distressed condo markets. Investor ownership is more competitive than many assume. Financial pressures remain elevated. And the rules governing land, resources and development may be entering a new era.The market is not simply correcting. The economic, political and legal foundations beneath Canadian real estate are changing, and the consequences could define the next decade._________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Alberta has formally proposed a pipeline to the southwest coast of British Columbia, in partnership with the federal government and a private company. The Globe and Mail's Stephanie Levitz and CBC's Anis Heydari join guest host Kate McKenna to discuss pipeline politics, the CUSMA deadline that came and went, and (of course!) Canada joining the Eurovision Song Contest. Plus, as the political barbecue season gets underway, The House's Jennifer Chevalier kicks off The House's summer series on food security with a documentary exploring the high cost of beef. A rancher explains why despite good cattle prices now it's hard to have confidence in the future, a chef wonders why interprovincial trade barriers make it so hard to buy local meat, and a meat packer shows us around his abattoir and explains why he's tapping into a government program that would help him ship meat to Canada's north. This episode features the voices of:Stephanie Levitz, senior reporter with The Globe and Mail's Ottawa bureauAnis Heydari, CBC News business reporterKevin Grier, beef & cattle market analystBrenda Rosadiuk, cattle rancher at Rosadiuk RanchesTyler Fulton, president of the Canadian Cattle AssociationCalvin Vaags, CEO of True North FoodsLewis Robinson, owner of La Petite Primerose restaurantSarah Berger Richardson, food law professor at the University of OttawaMichael Coteau, Liberal MP & chair of the House of Commons agriculture committeeEric Patenaude, owner of Henderson's Meats and Abattoir

Details of Alberta's pitch for a pipeline to the B.C. coast are finally revealed, and taxpayers could be on the hook for a significant portion of the costs. Power & Politics hears from Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Energy Minister Tim Hodgson. Plus, Liberal MP and environmental activist Steven Guilbeault warns against the proposed pipeline's impacts. The Power Panel weighs in.

Is Canada building its economy — or just listening to more speeches?In this episode of The LeDrew Three Minute Interview, Stephen LeDrew speaks with Dan McTeague, former Liberal MP and energy analyst, about Mark Carney's economic promises, Canada's missed opportunities, and why major private-sector projects remain trapped in political delay.McTeague argues that despite months of speeches, announcements, and promises to get Canada moving again, very little has actually come to fruition. He says the country faces a growing gap between government rhetoric and real economic action.The conversation focuses on Bay du Nord, a major offshore oil project near Newfoundland that McTeague says could bring billions of dollars in investment and major economic benefits to both Newfoundland and Canada. Instead of rolling out the red carpet for private-sector investment, he argues, Ottawa continues to delay, regulate, and talk.The discussion covers:Mark Carney's economic promises versus actual resultsWhy Canadians are losing patience with government announcementsBay du Nord and Canada's missed energy opportunityThe role of Equinor and BP in offshore Newfoundland oil developmentWhy private-sector investment matters more than government programsCanada's failure to move quickly on major projectsThe need to create an environment for investment, innovation, and productionWhy independent media matters when major opportunities are being missedLeDrew and McTeague argue that Canada does not need more government speeches or committees — it needs real projects, real investment, real jobs, and a government willing to get out of the way.As the economy weakens and confidence falls, this interview asks whether Canada can still build prosperity through enterprise — or whether Ottawa will continue managing decline.

Bronwyn Bishop, former Speaker of the House, says action should have been taken against Emergency Management Minister Kristy McBain before an outburst from a Liberal MP led to a suspension. On Tuesday, Liberal MP Garth Hamilton was suspended from the House of Representatives for 24 hours following an outburst in response to comments made by the Emergency Management Minister, who criticised Opposition Leader Angus Taylor over comments he made about firefighters and the 2003 Snowy Mountains bushfires. The former Speaker said the entire situation during Question Time could have been avoided if action had been taken against Ms McBain before Mr Hamilton's outburst.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why is Canada so slow to approve major energy projects?In this episode of The LeDrew Three Minute Interview, Stephen LeDrew speaks with Dan McTeague, former Liberal MP and energy analyst, about Bay du Nord — a major offshore oil project near Newfoundland that could have brought billions in investment, jobs, and economic activity to Canada.McTeague explains that the Bay du Nord project, located hundreds of kilometres off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, has been discussed for years and could produce hundreds of thousands of barrels of oil per day. Backed by major international players including Norway's Equinor, the project represents exactly the kind of private-sector investment Canada says it wants.So why has it taken so long?The conversation explores:What Bay du Nord is and why it mattersNewfoundland's potential offshore oil opportunityNorway's role through EquinorWhy major energy projects face long delays in CanadaOttawa's approach to resource developmentThe difference between Canada and Norway's use of oil wealthWhy Dan McTeague says Newfoundlanders and All Canadians should be furiousAnd whether Mark Carney is serious about getting government out of the wayLeDrew and McTeague argue that Canada needs to stop delaying private-sector investment and start approving projects that create jobs, strengthen the economy, and bring Canadian resources to global markets.As Canada faces weak growth and economic uncertainty, Bay du Nord raises a bigger question: why does Canada keep making it so hard to build the projects that could make the country richer?

Are heat pumps really the future of home heating in Canada — or just another expensive government-backed experiment?In this episode of The LeDrew Three Minute Interview, Stephen speaks with Dan McTeague, former Liberal MP and president of Canadians for Affordable Energy, about heat pumps, electricity costs, green subsidies, net-zero policy, and the growing burden on taxpayers.McTeague argues that while heat pumps may work in some circumstances, they are being oversold by governments as a simple solution for Canadian homes. He raises concerns about cold-weather performance, installation costs, electricity demand, insurance concerns, and whether taxpayers are being asked to subsidize another green transition program without fully understanding the long-term costs.The conversation explores:Heat pumps and Canadian wintersInstallation costs and payback timelinesHydro prices and grid capacityGovernment subsidies and taxpayer debtComparisons to electric vehicle incentivesNet-zero policy and public spendingWhy McTeague believes governments are “picking favourites” in the energy marketHeat pumps remain a major part of federal and provincial energy-efficiency strategies, and Natural Resources Canada describes them as a proven technology when properly chosen and installed. But McTeague questions whether the policy push is realistic for many Canadians — especially those already struggling with high costs of living.As governments continue promoting net-zero programs, this interview asks whether Canadians are getting practical energy solutions — or another expensive policy experiment doomed to fail.

Why can't Canada get major projects built anymore?In this episode of The LeDrew Three Minute Interview, Stephen speaks with Dan McTeague, former Liberal MP and president of Canadians for Affordable Energy, about pipelines, regulation, bureaucracy, energy policy, and the media's relationship with government funding.McTeague argues that Canada has become so over-regulated that major infrastructure projects now take years — even decades — to complete. While the United States can move energy infrastructure ahead far quickly, he says Canada has buried itself under layers of approvals, studies, bureaucracy, and political hesitation.The discussion covers:Why pipelines take so long to build in CanadaThe role of unelected bureaucrats and regulatorsHow red tape affects investment, jobs, and productivityThe connection between energy policy and gas pricesWhy Canada has struggled to develop its natural resourcesRecent job losses in construction and the broader economyGovernment-funded media and questions about transparencyWhy independent commentary matters in Canadian politicsMcTeague also argues that Canada's energy delays are not just an industry issue — they affect the cost of living, the value of the Canadian dollar, and the country's ability to compete globally.As debate continues over pipelines and major resource projects, Canada has recently approved Enbridge's C$4 billion Westcoast natural gas pipeline expansion, while other pipeline proposals still face major political and regulatory uncertainty Hosted on Acast.

After a brutal decade under Justin Trudeau's draconian anti-development policies, there's real optimism in the western oilpatch again. Paul Colborne, CEO of Calgary-based Surge Energy, tells Brian why he's convinced Prime Minister Mark Carney is serious about boosting oil production, including with more pipelines, and why investors are clamouring to get in on it. He explains why he even sees benefit to the carbon-tax and emissions-sequestering conditions in Carney's memorandum of understanding with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. And why he doesn't believe B.C., First Nations or some anti-oil Liberal MPs will stand in the prime minister's way of using resources to get us out of the disastrous, money-printing economic dead end the last prime minister left behind.

The Carney Government secured an unelected majority this week. This event demonstrates the collapse of representative government in Canada and the installation of a basic dictatorship. With the borders fully open and Liberal MPs now openly boasting about the “new voting base” foreigners provide, it is unlikely we will see a truly Canadian election anytime soon. However, there is much to give thanks for and rejoice in. We cannot control the times we live in, but we can walk by faith in them.This week, we discuss numerous realities to give thanks for and chart a course for practical faithfulness in the days ahead.

Iain Dale interviews author Paul Bessel about his new book FINDING DAD, a memoir-investigation into the life of Paul's father, Peter Bessel: a Liberal MP (1964-1970), close friend of Jeremy Thorpe, later a key prosecution witness in the 1979 Thorpe conspiracy-to-murder trial. Bessel explains why he delayed writing for decades, what triggered the book, and how fearful he was of uncovering painful truths in his parents' archives. The conversation traces Peter Bessel's rise as a respected Cornish MP, his later financial collapse, a dramatic disappearance in 1974 that left his family suddenly impoverished, and the complicated, sometimes clandestine life he led (including secret “work” Bessel suspects may have involved US national security).

He's done it again: Prime Minister Mark Carney has convinced yet another Conservative to join his Liberal government. This time, it's Sarnia—Lambton—Bkejwanong MP Marilyn Gladu, who previously said she was "personally pro-life" and opposed a Liberal bill to ban conversion therapy. She's now recanting those positions as Carney insists Liberal values are unchanged.How does it work when the Liberals try to cajole a Tory to join them? Catherine Cullen sits down with the first Conservative MP who made the leap to the Liberals, Chris d'Entremont, and Kody Blois, one of the Liberals who wooed him to cross the floor, to find out how it happens. Then, poll analyst Philippe Fournier lays the ground for Monday's byelections, when Carney is expected to cement his majority in Parliament. And as the Liberals hold their policy convention in Montreal, Hill watchers Joël-Denis Bellavance and Nick Taylor-Vaisey discuss the dramatic week in Canadian politics and what Gladu's departure means for her former leader, Pierre Poilievre. Plus, this week US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Canada-US trade negotiations could stretch past the July 1st deadline, and that there were “unresolved issues” with Canada. One of those irritants is the new Online Streaming Act, designed to make big streamers like Netflix and Disney pay to fund Canadian content the way that broadcasters do. CBC's Jennifer Chevalier explores whether the Online Streaming Act is worth fighting for – in the face of yet more tariff threats.This episode features the voices of:Chris d'Entremont, Liberal MP for Acadie—AnnapolisKody Blois, Liberal MP for Kings—HantsPhilippe Fournier, editor-in-chief at 338 CanadaJoël-Denis Bellavance, Ottawa bureau chief for La PresseNick Taylor-Vaisey, Ottawa bureau chief for PoliticoReynolds Mastin, President and CEO of the Canadian Media Producers AssociationCarla de Jong, Head of Co-Production and International Partnerships at Sinking Ship EntertainmentAndrew Cash, CEO of the Canadian Independent Music Association and former NDP MPSandra Aubé, Liberal strategistVass Bednar, Managing Director of the Canadian Shield InstituteMichael Geist, Canada Research Chair in Internet and e-Commerce Law at the University in Ottawa

Prime Minister Mark Carney defends accepting former Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu into his caucus despite her past opposition to a host of Liberal policies and positions, saying crossers bring 'a series of perspectives and expertise that is aiding the country.' Liberal House leader Steven MacKinnon tells Power & Politics that the party has values that Gladu 'has to adhere to.' Plus, Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley says he wants Carney to call a byelection in Gladu's riding so voters can confirm they really want a Liberal MP.

Canada's Bill C-9 is barreling toward law, labeling Bible verses in Leviticus, Romans, and Deuteronomy as 'hate speech'—with Liberal MPs declaring Scripture itself incites hatred against homosexuals.

Marc Miller is a Mark Carney Liberal cabinet minister — and a holdover from Justin Trudeau's government. In fact, most of Carney's cabinet is. From Mélanie Joly to François-Philippe Champagne to Anita Anand, the same names keep reappearing. It's difficult to take seriously claims that this is a “new” government in any meaningful sense, or slogans like “Canada is back,” when the same people have been running the country for nearly a decade. More outrageous still is the Liberals' ongoing attempt to blame Stephen Harper for current failures — even though his government ended eleven years ago. That argument has long since passed from implausible into absurd. One of the worst holdovers is Marc Miller. It is surprising he remains in cabinet at all, given that his chief qualification appears to have been his personal friendship with Justin Trudeau — including serving as a member of Trudeau's wedding party. That relationship, rather than any demonstrated competence, explains his rise and longevity in power. Today, Miller holds the title of Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture — a disturbing mandate in itself. A minister in charge of defining “identity” should concern anyone who believes such things emerge organically from history, culture, and shared experience, not government decree. The irony is that the same Liberal Party once described Canada as a “post-national” country — more a hotel than a homeland. Miller previously served as Minister of Immigration, where he oversaw a period of reckless and historically unprecedented mass immigration that did profound damage to social trust, public services, and national cohesion. This is the same government that removed Sir John A. Macdonald from the ten-dollar bill, rewrote the national anthem, tore down statues, and casually accused Canada of committing genocide. It is difficult to take lectures on national identity seriously from officials who have spent years dismantling it. Against that backdrop, Miller recently testified before a parliamentary committee and was questioned by Conservative MP Rachael Thomas about “social cohesion.” The question was straightforward and reasonable. In other countries, “social cohesion” has become a euphemism for enforced silence: in China, obedience; in the United Kingdom, avoiding discussion of politically inconvenient crimes for fear of being labelled Islamophobic. What, exactly, does it mean in Canada? Miller's answer did little to clarify matters. He warned of “intense disinformation” and claimed social cohesion is weakened when “falsities are propagated through media sources both legitimate and illegitimate.” That raises an obvious question: who decides which media sources are “illegitimate”? Canadians were recently told, incorrectly and repeatedly, that a mass murderer was female — even described as “a female in a dress” in emergency alerts. This misinformation was amplified by police, politicians, and much of the mainstream media, including the CBC. The state broadcaster went so far as to emphasize pronouns and refer to the killer by first name, as though discussing a personal acquaintance. Was that disinformation? Or, in Marc Miller's framework, was it “social cohesion” — the deliberate suppression of uncomfortable facts in the name of public calm? More troubling still is Miller's assertion that a strong, dominant CBC is essential to Canadian democracy. He describes the broadcaster as independent, despite its consistent alignment with Liberal positions on everything from climate policy to Donald Trump to gender ideology. On no major cultural or political issue does the CBC meaningfully dissent from the governing party that funds it. This is the practical reality of government-subsidized media. As one Liberal MP bluntly told a National Post reporter on X: https://x.com/Taleeb/status/1832480006578028641 “Your paper wouldn't be in business were it not for the subsidies that the government that you hate put in place — the same subsidies your Trump-adjacent foreign hedge fund owners gladly take to pay your salary.” That is not independence. That is power reminding journalists who pays the bills. This authoritarian instinct is familiar. It echoes Justin Trudeau's own worldview — that there is a single, approved truth, known by the governing class, and that dissent is illegitimate. Trudeau has said as much openly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDfMybczw1k And more explicitly still: https://x.com/AreOhEssEyeEe/status/1758912476572189069 “They don't believe in science or progress and are very often misogynistic and racist… Do we tolerate these people?” Those words were not rhetorical. The Trudeau government arrested peaceful protesters, froze hundreds of bank accounts, and punished citizens for embarrassing the regime. With new censorship laws now advancing, there is every reason to believe the same logic will be extended further. Independent media coverage of the recent transgender mass murder will almost certainly be cited as justification for additional controls on speech and journalism.
