Does Trudeau’s Resignation Impact The Real Estate Market

Justin Trudeau announces his resignation as Prime Minister amid a housing affordability crisis, following his father's historic "walk in the snow" forty years ago. As housing costs and mortgage rates squeeze Canadian homeowners and renters alike, the Liberal Party faces record-low polling numbers. Potential successors Freeland, Carney, and Fraser must now address the party's troubled housing legacy and propose solutions to Canada's real estate challenges.

• Mark Carney's background in financial markets and monetary policy positions him as a strong contender to address Canada's housing market instability and mortgage affordability crisis
• The Trudeau government's housing initiatives, including the Home Buyers' Bill of Rights and attempts to curb foreign investment, largely failed to contain soaring real estate prices and rental costs
• As housing remains a top election issue, opposition parties are gaining ground with alternative housing platforms, promising to boost supply and address affordability through various policy measures
