yes you can, you choose not to (assuming you have it and not just making baseless claims like so many), this site is great due to anonymity.
This is actually one of the biggest issues, lack of transparency, no one except insiders have any real information, anything released has been cleansed and manipulated.
i would never make a $500K, 900K, etc. decision when I know there should be more transparent information - it's out there in the US, so why not here.
but this is now a double edged sword as real estate is now a bigger part of the canadian economy than it ever has been, bigger than when the US market tanked (not saying they're the same, just pointing out a fact) and given mortgages are backed by taxpayers (CMHC), there is a clear conflict of interest here from the government's side.
definitely food for thought, no?
