Real Estate Meltdown - Why Developers Are Sounding the Alarm

Canada’s real estate industry is officially in crisis mode.

In this week’s episode, we break down why some of the country’s most powerful developers — names like Polygon, Westbank, Beedie, and Mosaic — have joined forces to publicly plead for help. From record-breaking drops in pre-construction sales to massive project cancellations and widespread layoffs, the development industry is sounding the alarm louder than ever.

Why now? Because new housing starts are collapsing. Because financing has dried up. And because if nothing changes, tens of thousands more jobs are on the line.

So what are they asking for? A controversial — and potentially game-changing — solution: lifting the foreign buyer ban to unlock critical investment capital. Is this the lifeline the industry needs, or just another band-aid on a broken system?

We explore both sides of this heated issue and propose alternative solutions, including government-backed construction financing to ensure new homes can still be built for Canadians — by Canadians.

If you're a buyer, investor, developer, renter, or anyone tied to Canada’s housing economy — this is an episode you don’t want to miss. The real estate industry is standing on a cliff, and the decisions made in the coming weeks could shape the future of housing for years to come.

Watch now and join the conversation. Your thoughts matter.
