Canada's recent election where Carney won, with both major parties having similar housing and economic policies. The conversation explores post-election economic challenges, including trade tensions with the US and potential recession concerns⁠⁠.

  • About 85% of Canadians voted for similar housing policies, with consensus on issues like lower taxes, help for first-time buyers, and the need to build 300-500k homes per year⁠⁠.
  • Trade tensions with the US are creating economic uncertainty, with Carney and Trump scheduled to meet, while Deloitte predicts a recession and RBC forecasts a significant economic slowdown⁠⁠.
  • The government is planning targeted responses including infrastructure spending and immigration policy changes, with permanent resident intake being reduced from 500,000 to 365,000⁠⁠.
