Cold Glitter: The Untold Story of Canadian Glam (Feral House, 2025) uncovers a forgotten yet fascinating chapter on glam rock music and culture...from Canada. Los Angeles-based multi-disciplinary artist Robert Dayton taps his Canadian roots to reveal mind-blowing stories of musicians fighting to be heard. It's a universal story of determined creators striving to make their voices heard. Dayton has spent years researching and interviewing these ground-breaking musicians trapped by geography, colonial mindsets, and the cultural behemoth that is the United States. There's no denying that glam rock was marginalized in Canada. In fact, RCA almost didn't release the 1973 Bowie-produced Lou Reed album "Transformer" in Canada because they didn't see a market for it.  Of course, they were wrong! Young Canadians, like youth around the world, were rebelling against the oppressive conservative mainstream culture and saw themselves in the anything-goes freedom of glam rock. Cold Glitter gets at the reasons why: nature vs. artifice, old world values vs. new freedoms, and how transgressive actions--including gender play--shook the Canadian art establishment to its core. Filled with stories from musicians about what they did to build a career and fight against the old guard controlling the airwaves and stages. Readers everywhere will find solidarity with the all-too-familiar story of artists who were attacked for appearing outrageous and daring to be different. Within the struggle to be fabulous are mind-blowing anecdotes of fun and mayhem. Readers will be taken back to the seventies as they meet the unknown and infamous musicians and artists who dared to be glamorous. Familiar names like magician Doug Henning, Vancouver band Sweeney Todd and their lead singer and one-hit-wonder, Nik Gilder, and his replacement, Bryan Adams, to underground heroes like the Hollywood Brats to hundreds of musicians who put away their mascara and left their glamorous wild days behind. Cold Glitter is filled with rare (and sometimes outrageous) images throughout and additional chapters on glam fashion, film, and comedy in Canada. Learn more about your ad choices.

Economy compelling Young Canadians to explore alternative ways to purchase a home REMAX - Toronto - Canada's Podcast

In this video interview, Samantha Villiard, Regional Vice President, RE/MAX Canada, discusses a new report indicating young Canadians are seeking alternative ways to buy homes in the country due to higher interest rates, the price of housing and the high cost of living. PRESS RELEASE TORONTO, Feb. 27, 2024 /CNW/ — Economic factors, including the high cost of living, high interest rates and the price of housing, are prompting one-third of Canadians to explore alternative ways of entering the housing market (32 per cent), according to a Leger survey commissioned by RE/MAX Canada. When asked to consider the future, almost half of Canadians say they would keep non-traditional methods of buying a home in the mix (48 per cent). A new RE/MAX report titled Alternative Home Ownership Models: Trends in the Canadian Housing Market examined 22 cities across Canada and assessed trends in non-traditional home-ownership models, including co-ownership with friends and family, rent-to-own scenarios, and purchasing homes with additional units or suites for income potential, as opposed to more traditional avenues. “Canadians from coast to coast are grappling with affordability challenges, but at the same time, their desire to achieve home ownership remains strong. This is prompting many to seriously consider alternative ways to get their foot in the door, where it might not be feasible under the traditional ownership model of a single person or couple purchasing with between five and 20 per cent down,” says Christopher Alexander, President of RE/MAX Canada. According to Leger research commissioned by RE/MAX in late 2023, the majority of Canadians believe home ownership is the best investment they can make (73 per cent). This sentiment has remained consistent with a 2022 survey, indicating that despite economic turbulence, Canadians still see value in home ownership. “With high interest rates plateauing, and potentially lowering in the latter half of 2024, now may be a good time to consider getting into the market, especially for those who have been taking a ‘wait-and-see' approach,” says Benjamin Tal, Deputy Chief Economist of CIBC World Markets Inc. “Despite some interest rate reprieve in 2024, Canada is still dealing with an affordability crisis due to a lack of inventory and increasing demand, which will persist until the country addresses the problem adequately. Considering this, creative solutions like co-ownership may be an option for many Canadian home-buyers looking to achieve the dream of home ownership.” Non-traditional home ownership models are also emblematic of a new, modernized chapter in what it means to be a “homeowner,” an identifier more often associated with an individual or a couple. “But creativity in the home-buying process is a workaround, not a solution to Canada's affordability crisis. Like modern, innovative home-buyers, our governments must be more strategic and visionary in how we can use existing lands and real estate to drive our housing supply to allow for a greater diversity of housing for all Canadians,” says Alexander. “Despite ongoing affordability and supply crises, Canadians still dream of home ownership, and as they wait for governments to come together to create a cohesive, national housing strategy, they've become innovative and resourceful in achieving this dream.” According to a Leger survey commissioned on behalf of RE/MAX Canada, 48 per cent of Canadians would consider purchasing a home using an alternative model. Among Canadians, 22 per cent would purchase under a rent-to-own scenario; 21 per cent would consider co-ownership with a family member that isn't a spouse or partner; and 17 per cent would consider purchasing a home intending to be the primary tenant and renting out a part of the home to someone else. There's also a cohort of Canadians that is open to the idea of non-traditional home ownership but is not sure what the process would entail (49 per cent). Of those who are open to this idea, the majority (59 per cent) believe working with a Realtor who could advise on how to navigate the non-traditional purchasing journey would be beneficial. Additional Insights According to the Leger survey, 13 per cent of current homeowners purchased a home in a non-traditional way. Demographically, young (aged 18-34) homeowners (25 per cent), and BIPoC Canadians (27 per cent) are significantly more likely to have purchased their home using an alternative method. Likewise, young (aged 18-34) Canadians (70 per cent), BIPoC Canadians (72 per cent), and Canadians with children under 18 (71 per cent) who would consider non-traditional home-ownership but are not sure what the process would entail, are more likely to agree that working with a licensed Realtor who specializes in non-traditional home ownership situations would be beneficial in their home-buying journey. Regional Market Insights RE/MAX Canada brokers and agents across the country provided insights into non-traditional home-buying trends in their local market. According to the network, 71 per cent of regions surveyed noted a slight uptick in non-traditional home-ownership situations. Western Canada RE/MAX brokers and agents in Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg, have reported income/secondary suites, joint tenants, and tenants in common as the most common non-traditional home-ownership models1, however, secondary suites are the most popular choice among home-buyers in 2024. Kelowna is an outlier and listed reverse mortgages as its second most common alternative ownership model. Secondary suites are used to generate income by renting to a tenant, or for intergenerational housing. More affordable cities in Western Canada, such as Saskatoon, Regina, and Nanaimo are not observing the same trends. In Edmonton and Winnipeg, increased immigration has sparked an uptick in home-buyers seeking properties with secondary suites and intergenerational accommodations. By comparison, in more expensive markets such as Vancouver, Kelowna and Victoria, brokers and agents are reporting a growing popularity of income suites for income potential or to mitigate mortgage costs. In Vancouver, many buyers who purchase a home with a secondary suite are doing so for additional income to help with mortgage costs. Victoria is also experiencing an increase in co-ownership with friends or family within the last two years due to high prices. This trend is anticipated to continue in Western Canada markets, with areas experiencing the biggest influx of newcomers from out of province and internationally seeing the biggest shift toward non-traditional ownership models. For instance, Winnipeg is anticipating an increase of between 10 to 12 per cent of first-time home-buyers entering non-traditional home ownership setups, whereas Victoria is anticipating an increase of only two to five per cent. Ontario Ongoing affordability and supply issues, coupled with increased migration, have caused non-traditional home-ownership models to increase over the last year in markets such as London, Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga, Sudbury, Hamilton–Burlington and Oakville. According to RE/MAX brokers, the top three non-traditional home-ownership models are tenants in common, secondary suites and joint tenants. In London, Brampton and Mississauga, home-buyers are increasingly searching for properties with secondary suites to accommodate intergenerational households. In London, parents commonly purchase homes with their children to operate as an intergenerational family unit and assist with childcare and household expenses. By contrast, in Mississauga and Brampton, which are experiencing an expanding immigrant population, secondary suites are intended to accommodate extended family members or to generate rental income to support the costs of growing extended families. According to the RE/MAX broker in Hamilton–Burlington–Oakville, sales data in the region that looks at ownership composition has many agreements with multiple names on purchases, meaning there are likely a variety of instances of joint ownership. Multigenerational buyers have also increased in the region, anecdotally, by approximately 300 per cent over the last five years. This is especially prevalent among families, with co-ownership or shared equity among parents and/or even grandparents. Likewise, these regions are seeing an uptick in reverse mortgages, especially among older residents to either get the property they want or use the funds in another investment. In Ontario cities such as Brampton, Mississauga and London, municipal governments have recognized the benefits of secondary income suites and have implemented supportive policies to encourage their development through streamlined approval processes and relaxed zoning restrictions. Brokers reported the number of Canadians entering non-traditional home-buyer situations in markets like London, ON and Toronto, ON, is anticipated to increase between eight to 10 per cent, and in Mississauga and Brampton, it could be as high as 35 per cent with a five per cent year-over-year increase moving forward. Like Western Canada, while multi-generational living is on the radar in more affordable Ontario cities, such as Ottawa, the number of buyers is minimal. Independent living is still affordable in Ottawa, and the region is attracting more young families than its more costly counterparts. Montreal  In Montreal, a lack of inventory paired with affordability issues, has caused an uptick in buyers looking towards non-traditional methods of home ownership. This trend is expected to continue. When home-buyers in Montreal do opt for non-traditional purchasing models, the most common forms are co-ownership/co-equity, tenants in common, and income/secondary suites. Secondary suites specifically, are becoming more popular, but according to the RE/MAX broker in Montreal, present legislation must be amended to make these suites more accessible to the general population. Due to ongoing affordability challenges in the area, it's anticipated that Montreal could see a 10 to 15 per cent increase in home-buyers exploring creative solutions to engage with the housing market this year. Atlantic Canada In Atlantic Canada, some brokers reported an increase in joint tenants, co-ownership/co-equity and a rise in popularity of homes with in-law suites for additional income potential. In Moncton, NB and Halifax, NS, a lack of inventory is ongoing, resulting in buyers becoming more creative in how they purchase homes and the type of home they short-list. Similar to Ontario regions that are encouraging the development of secondary suites, in November 2023, the City of Moncton proposed a $10,000 grant for adding a basement apartment, garden suite, or second housing unit on a residential lot, which could further encourage residents to purchase homes with additional suites. Similarly, Halifax has seen greater flexibility from the municipal government to develop secondary suites. In Charlottetown, P.E.I, there has also been an uptick in buyers in the region entering non-traditional forms of home-ownership, with income/secondary suites, followed by co-ownership/co-equity and rent-to-own being some of the most common forms in the region. Affordability is another factor driving trends in alternative home ownership methods in Halifax. According to the RE/MAX broker in Halifax, families and friends purchasing homes together and living together has been a trend to mitigate costs for a while and it's expected to continue – and even increase in 2024 due to current inflation and interest rate climates. Brokers in Moncton, NB, and Halifax NS are anticipating seeing approximately five to 15 per cent of buyers enter non-traditional home ownership situations in 2024. While the RE/MAX broker in Charlottetown, P.E.I., is anticipating five to 10 per cent. Due to the relative affordability of St. John's, NF, compared to other Canadian regions, non-traditional home ownership is currently not a trend. Advice to Buyers: Research, research, research: Research Realtors, lenders, lawyers and mortgage brokers with experience in non-traditional home-ownership agreements. Get informed on the benefits and drawbacks of non-traditional home-ownership models before you start your buying journey. Understand the tax implications: Non-traditional home-ownership models often include different tax impacts and benefits. Consult a tax professional and weigh the taxes you may or may not be subjected to prior to entering any non-traditional models of home ownership. Learn about the different forms of home ownership and choose the one that's right for you and your situation: For anyone looking at rent-to-own, structure the agreement and the monthly payments such that the lender will accept it to fund a mortgage utilizing that as your down payment in the future. This is the most common way that rental buyers lose their money, sometimes negligently by the seller or landlord, and sometimes intentionally setting them up to fail to keep their cash. It's not a one-size-fits-all solution: While demand for secondary suites has seen an increase in many Canadian regions, and does offer potential income benefits, RE/MAX brokers caution buyers that these suites do come with barriers to entry, specifically timing. It may take owners a while to break-even on the income potential of secondary suites. About the report: This report includes data and insights provided by RE/MAX brokerages. RE/MAX brokers and agents are surveyed on market activity, local developments and trends.

Ep 456 - A Lost Decade Ahead for Canada Guest: David Williams By Stuart McNish   “The Canadian economy is on track to be the worst performing economy out of 38 advanced countries over the next 40 years, with the lowest growth in real GDP per capita,” says David Williams, the Vice-President of Policy at the Business Council of British Columbia. He goes on to say, “Young Canadians entering the workforce today are facing 40 years of stagnant average real incomes, according to OECD projections.”   That is a dire warning to policymakers in Canada: one that demands a need to address the underlying causes.  “If they don't,” Williams says, “there will be a decline in real incomes relative to all other advanced OECD countries.”   We invited David Williams to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the bleak forecast of stagnation young Canadians will face over the course of their careers.   Learn More about our guests career at careersthatmatter.ca   Join me June 20 for Conversations Live - A Vancouver Sun Town Hall https://www.conversationslive.ca/

Over the weekend, Pierre Poilievre won the leadership race of the Conservative Party of Canada by a landslide. While he congratulated his fellow contenders for their efforts to unite the party and bring in new faces, it was ultimately Pierre himself who drew in the largest numbers. Most notably that of younger people. Why does he appeal to the young voter so much? To answer this, Alex is joined by Sam Routley, Doctoral Student in Political Science at Western University.
