The average income in Canada is about $40K

1 $100K earner is in the top 20%. Having both is quite rare.

You've made the opposite argument: those people should easily be able to afford a relatively nice home.

Homes are completely out of range for normal Torontonians, and it's a problem.



Sure, so there is more demand than supply is my point. If we want to address that we need to diversify where we invest [not just toronto] so we can make alternatives available and not concentrate everyone's desire to live in a 50km radius.

Remember that next time you vote. And that isn't a jab at the current government, it's more a statement to remind people that tax cuts and other incentives we can expect to come up on offer come election time are not what we are complaining about here.


I don't quite agree that there's more demand than supply.

That does not have to happen for a speculative bubble.
