Comments
Canada is booming. Our latest GDP number was the highest in decades. With all the Trump nonsense, many tech companies are choosing to set-up shop in Canada rather than the US. We are talking about thousands of companies and our immigration is swamped with new applications including many from the US.
The over heated real estate market has made many people rich in the last few years with lots of excess cash to burn.
