## Resource

In this episode, we break down Canada’s rare population decline, rising unemployment, weakening income growth, and what these trends mean for housing prices, rents, and investment strategy. We also explore how inflation, interest rates, global conflicts, and political shifts are shaping capital flows—and why many investors are starting to look beyond Canada to places with stronger population and income growth. If you’re a Canadian real estate investor wondering where the market is heading next, this episode helps you skate to where the puck is going—not where it’s been.
