It’s Day One of the latest Canada-US Trade Tariff War and this one is a doozey! Move Smartly Editor and Host, Urmi, once again speaks to John and Steve on what is going on in the data and on the ground in Toronto and Vancouver and how are Canadian real estate consumers reacting to the introduction of 25% blanket tariffs on our trade with the US courtesy of President Donald Trump? Will banks continue to prop up the pre-construction or are things changing? And will low interest rates and the first signs of prices dropping be enough to get Canadians back into real estate again like they did after the initial shock of the 2008 financial crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic shutdowns wore off?
