Nearly 70,000 people left BC last year – the largest exodus in three decades – and 77% were under 40. Young professionals, families, and skilled workers are leaving for more affordable provinces, raising serious questions about BC’s future.
In this episode of The Real Deal Pod, Allister & Geoff dive into:
• The Stay With BC campaign findings – housing costs, high taxes, low wages, and strained public services.
• The rise of co-ownership as a creative solution (and what to know legally before jumping in).
• Why the province is struggling to retain the next generation of talent – and what needs to change.
If you care about housing affordability, market shifts, and real solutions, this is an episode you’ll want to share.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
