Are we on the brink of another financial crisis in Canada’s housing market? Between rising interest rates, record household debt, and condo oversupply in cities like Montreal and Toronto, investors are asking the same question: how do you survive the storm? In this episode, I break down lessons from the 2008 financial crisis—and how they apply to today’s Canadian real estate market. You’ll learn how to spot early warning signs, build a personal “danger dashboard,” and make smarter decisions without panic. Whether you own a triplex in Montreal or are considering your first rental property, these strategies will help you navigate uncertainty with clarity and confidence.

🎧 Episode Description:

Canada is now one of the top 3 most indebted nations in the world—right behind Switzerland and Australia. The bulk of household debt is no related to consumer spending. Rather its mortgage debt. And while we’re quietly suffocating under record mortgage loads, the CMHC - the mortgage insurance backstopped by the Canadian taxpayer - is busy extending amortization periods. The question every Canadian investor should be asking is: Are we heading for a mortgage debt reckoning? And, what happens when house prices go down, leaving consumers underwater?

If you're a homeowner, investor, or just someone watching housing affordability slip further away—you'll want to understand where the risks are.

In this episode, we break down why relying on government or your paycheck is a losing game in the face of the ten-dollar butter and million dollar house prices. I'm also going to share a few things you can actually do to escape—-or at least mitigate—-the affordability crisis.

Whether you rent, want to buy, or already own and feel stuck, this is your wake-up call. The system won’t save you. Very specific actions will.

I want to talk strategy before it’s too late.
