In this month’s live Canadian Real Estate Market Breakdown, REM columnist and housing analyst Daniel Foch explores one of the biggest questions facing the industry: Is Canada experiencing the worst housing market in history?

Drawing on new national and regional data, Daniel explains why today’s market is far more complex than the headlines suggest.
