We're pretty sheltered in Vancouver with all the foreign money, I see restaurants still packed, desirable real estate still selling close to asking, airport still packed with people traveling etc. However, I do notice more court-ordered listings and multiple mercedes dealers have new G63 AMG in stock.

i work in a field tied to construction and yes big time slowdown.
fortunately we're still busy but not as busy as other years where there are mountains of jobs in the queue. some competitors are apparently not even open every day because no work.
developers are slow, renovations guys are slow, homeowners are not doing as many projects, etc..
