I lived in Richmond BC for a short time when we immigrated to Canada.
I am sooooo fucking happy I got out of that collapsing marxist shithole called Canada.
QuoteThis land is your land, this land is...wait, did anyone actually check the title? Canadian real estate got more bad news this month—the BC Supreme Court has ruled Cowichan Tribes still hold title to 1,846 acres of prime Richmond land in Greater Vancouver. The longest trial in Canadian history only targeted government-held lands, but may have a much wider impact, setting a precedent that could reshape property law.
Whoops! No Treaty, No Sale—Unlike Most of Canada, 95% of BC Was Never Secured By Treaty
Canada's controversial treaty system is one of the key issues at play, and not in the way most would assume. Canada is covered by a patchwork of historic and modern treaties that outline the terms of land acquisition and compensation. They generally state that Indigenous Nations cede land to the Crown "forever," in exchange for compensation, reserves, annual payments, and vaguely stated limited rights.
Today's homeowners are safe, but the court confirmed Aboriginal title can exist over privately owned land—and that's a door no one's closed. Even if the court doesn't order expropriation of private homes, it undermines private ownership. The finding also sets a precedent for large areas in 95% of BC without treaty agreements, and potentially impacts similar situations in other provinces. This creates legal uncertainty, which property markets don't like—a clear title is important for loans secured against land (i.e., a mortgage).

There is another claim moving forward affecting the entire city of Kamloops(about 100,000 people).
QuoteIn the wake of the Cowichan Decision, a number of other aboriginal title cases making their way through British Columbia's court system have been brought to light.
Among them is a claim filed by the Secwepemc Nation that seeks title over "the whole of Secwepemc Traditional Territory in the future," which includes the entire city of Kamloops.

Shoulda killed all them fukin injuns!
The private property rights of thousands of British Columbians are now in question, particularly in light of the court precedents set by the NDP in their handling of the Cowichan Tribes claim, and most certainly by the granting of title over existing private property in Haida Gwaii.

There are a lotta Asian Massage parlors there too.

Like OMIGAWD!! Canada is finished.
QuoteBut nonetheless, Justice Young awarded the Cowichan title to over half-a-billion dollars of land that, according to Aboriginal title, they can "occupy, use, control and profit from."
This has led the city to warn the affected residents that the decision "may compromise the status and validity of your ownership."

This is fucking insane. Canada is FUBAR!!
Quotecan anyone truly assure property owners throughout Canada that activist judges will not deem the treaties to be invalid because the Crown, in the judges' minds, have not lived up to their side of the agreements, even though the federal government now spends $32 billion a year on Indigenous programs and benefits?
All of the land acknowledgements and "land back" protests that have become so fashionable in Canada have led to a belief among more than a third of Canadians (including 58% aged 18 to 24) that all Canadian land belongs to First Nations, according to a Leger poll in September.
That belief may be even stronger among activist judges who readily create new Charter rights where none ever existed.

Good thing I didn't buy this property I saw for sale
Shen Li
Shen in BC.
I was really interested too.
But maybe it's no longer a good idea to buy here.
Got any suggestions where else I could get property, Shen?
It's a bit too cold n rainy here.
If it was warmer & dry or like to buy somewhere else.
US seems desirable but they have a lotta problems right now. Trump has destabilized the US eh.
Anybody who voted for David Eby deserves to have their home confiscated. Same with Mark Carney. Carney refuses to invoke the Nothwithstanding Clause to defend private property rights - the cornerstone of a free and prosperous society.

BULLSEYE!!
Biggz, your decision to leave New York was a good one. Your property would be worthless.
Leaving Canada when I did was a smart decision. At this rate home ownership will be illegal in communist Canada.
Quote from: Shen Li on Today at 02:59:18 AMBiggz, your decision to leave New York was a good one. Your property would be worthless
It's ridiculous to suggest that homes in NY will be worthless. They're at an all time high and a change in local governments isn't going to suddenly erase all that value.
In Biggies area back in NY:
Average home value: $615,431, up 6.4% over the past year
Median sale price: $634K, up 11.5% since last year
Median list price: $600,000
Median home sold price: $610K
Median home sale price: $700K, up 9.4% year-over-year
These values reflect the competitive and somewhat competitive nature of the Hempstead housing market, with homes selling in a range of prices and times. The data provided by Zillow, Redfin, and RealtyTrac offers a comprehensive view of the current market trends and property values I've read that homes in Florida are losing value astronomically because of all the hurricane damage, skyrocketing homeowners insurance, and so many HOAs that have not managed properties well and are in disrepair despite HOA monthly fees in the thousands.
Meanwhile property values in Florida continue to skyrocket, in many places including the problematic coastal areas they've doubled in less than 10 years.

You'd think if that was the case then home prices wouldn't keep increasing each year. And if it's a gradual process of fewer Americans being able to afford homes, then it's reasonable to expect prices to level off and then possibly drop to some degree rather than crash. There's been housing "bubbles" before, I'm not going to hold my breath and wait for a real estate market crash to happen anytime soon.
Quote from: wizer on Today at 06:23:10 AMYou'd think if that was the case then home prices wouldn't keep increasing each year.
Of course home prices increase every year as does the price of everything else. It's called inflation. But just because the number went up it doesn't necessarily mean any real value has been added.

In most areas of the country the historical appreciation in real estate prices have outpaced inflation by a wide margin.

That was before Mamdani. That could change of course.
But, demand dictates real estate prices. That could change in Canada. At least parts of it unless the Carney government overrides courts and BC premier David Eby.
Quote from: DKG on Today at 10:59:49 AMThat was before Mamdani. That could change of course.
Yes of course it could change. But most of the posters here and on other forums most frequently inhabited by conservatives are virtually certain that because the new Mayor is a democrat, New York City is completely fucked, end of story and anyone who chooses to argue the point is a libtard.

Of course not. Toronto has a hard leftist mayor and while house prices have moderated they have not collapsed.
That will not happen either as long as the Carney Liberals keep annual immigration intake unsustainably high. It is all supply and demand.
The only way cities like Toronto and NY will see house prices plummet is if there is a sudden mass exodus and I have never seen that happen in Canada.

I hope this will convince my wife to quit her job sell our house and get out of Canada before the chugs and Carney take our house away from us.
Carney does not want home ownership for the working class. He is using the chugs to get his dictatorial wish.

Angeldrawers, remember I explained to you after we had sex last that because Americans enjoy higher incomes lower taxes consumer debt levels get more investment and have a healthier job market than Canadians the market outlook over the next five years is a stable not subject to boom or bust?
