Nice to know that not only does the house in Vancouver cost 3 times more than 5 years ago but also my money is worth half. So property in CAN is now 5 times more expensive if you are on a CX salary in HKG? Not even taking higher interest rates or the effect of inflation on my expendable income into account - you figure I could still get that place in Whistler?
I feel for those trying to save to come back to Canada but imagine how bad it is for those living in Canada with a US salary? They continue to receive salary cuts living in the high cost of the Canadian economy.
