Shoe box is still better than people like you complaining about being price out of market... I am sorry I hurt your feelings must be real painful. But hey keep complaining maybe someday you will realize instead of complaining you could try harder and save up for a mortgage.

Plain and simple - people need a place to live. Not everyone has the ability to pick up and leave. There's assholes who buy houses and use them as an airbnb house or be a dickbag landlord who has 0 sympathy for anyone so long as you get your monthly rent money. But whatever, you could care less that the couple who lives in the basement suite across the street who've decent jobs and should be able to live comfortable but can't.
The whole hole eating out and cars thing.... Really? Apples to oranges.
Keep the prices the way they are and rising and soon you'll have no laborers to build houses or towers. They need to live and eat just like you and I. Why break their back doing hard physical labor for a wage that barely gets them by and will get them nowhere in life but scraping along the bottom of the barrel? Fuck that. I'd then take the plunge and leave. You want your 600sqft 900k condo built...build it yourself.
Ps - your aunt sold ALL of her apartments.... She's part of the problem with what's happening here. How many properties does she plan on purchasing here or already own? Canadian citizen or not, if you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem.

Don't plan to have kids so does't matter to me. And that's the reality. Ton's of people with Canadian citizenship are making money elsewhere and deciding to invest the real estate here. What you think the gov is really going to point fingers and stop them from investing? Give me a break they are never going to do that. Makes no sense to stop a person with Canadian citizenship from investing into Canadian market.
Sure keep telling yourself that is not my fault I got price, is others fault and the gov isn't doing anything to help me. ME! The problem is you. Don't make enough well maybe get a 2nd job or stop those weekly dine out.
