text: This is a great point. While our politicians sit on their hands, afraid of doing anything that might disrupt the inflated GDP figures created by this housing bubble, they are setting up an entire generation of Canadians for financial failure. What are we going to do 20 years from now when Millenials remain buried in housing debt and have no discretionary money to spend to build families, invest in retirement, or support the economy through consumption? It really is an example of mortgaging--no pun intended--our country's future for the benefit of a small number of speculators.
