... Canadians getting irate ...

Yeah, that's a sign that things have gone past "bad".

Not to mention the American and Canadian funds buying up every new house that does get built, snatching them out from actual "I want to live there" people, just to rent them back to families for three times what the mortgage payment would be.

I offer an apology for my countrymen's behaviour, for all the good that it does.

Unfortunately, even Canada has people who say "It's being done to us so that gives us a right to do it to somebody else."
