    You mean the radio spots that tell me I can own a house for 400k in Alberta? As much as I want to believe that that’s not complete bullshit, I think it is bullshit and pity everyone who goes through just to come back to wherever they were before.

      You can totally own like a nice 3-bedroom house in a nice area in Winnipeg right now for 400K. My house cost that much and even had a finished basement and is one, a much bigger plot than most houses.

        Up to a few years ago, you could have the 400k 3-bedroom AND a postal code that looks like ‘banana’ as well. BONUS!

        Not now, though. Everyone found out and barely beat the investor scum to snap it all up.
