And willing Canadians in government positions to let this run unchallenged.

Yo ReductiMat, I just found out from Punky we're practically neighbours. I'm just a street up from you. Will swing by next time I'm coming back from a ride and see if you're about the homefront.

A proper introduction.

TOTALLY off topic but met PUNKY tonight up here in Whiz. Great guy!! Hope the surfboard bag works out Braddah and if not, I'm here for ya.

So Vancouver is going down the shitter… RUN TO THE HILLS!!!!!!!! :idea:

We'll see a mean reversion soon; all the metrics are pointing to it and pointing to it quickly. Fundamentals are pulling back within calculable deviations, things are on the horizon. Patience.

Well, that's what we get for being passive, naive and living under the assumption that all cultures are similar to ours as far as being honest. Well fuck that noise. It's time to start a fucking blood bath.

This is just a comical coincidence that a real estate flipper happened to have an office in a building owned by the real estate board.

The issue here wasn't that the guy was flipping houses - it was that he was flipping houses and claiming the principal residence exemption on all of the transactions despite not actually living in them.

The fact that the real estate board was his landlord has nothing to do with this guy committing tax fraud!

Makes a good news headline though…

Holy crap, I cannot believe how many homeless people there are downtown now, I have never seen it so bad. Poor people trapped in an ever more unaffordable city.

Well, well I been movin' down to Florida.
And I'm gonna bowl me a perfect game.
Well I'm gonna cut off my leg down in Florida, child.
And I'm gonna dance one-legged off in the rain.

Ain't gonna happen. Remember:"Only the little people pay taxes".

BTW, the Vancouver property market got so bad today, I traded my house for an XL-size Fox DH race jersey.

Like I said earlier maybe last year, Vancouver is going down the shitter! And it most certainly did. Suddenly you realize it's time to leave. Massive overpopulation, massive traffic, massive construction, massive mortgage, and trails of any kind in North Van are completely obliterated! Halifax is the last affordable, beautiful and most civilized city to be exploited, just sayin. Good bye Vancouver, best friend since 1980. Tears, what the fuck happened?

Ya pretty big statement. I like the affordable housing for all Canadians quote.
