Canada’s economy is sending mixed signals—and mortgages, housing, and jobs are caught in the crossfire. Alex & Alex unpack September’s jobs print vs. unemployment, inflation ticking to ~2.4%, and what that means for the next Bank of Canada move. We also hit breaking headlines: the Ontario ad that sparked a Canada-US tariff spat, bank record profits alongside layoffs, Stellantis/GM shifts in auto manufacturing, and why “missing middle” construction is booming in Alberta but stalling in Toronto/Vancouver.
Plus: CRA call-centre accuracy shockers, mortgage-fraud fines in the GTA, Richmond land-claim jitters in B.C., and global demographics—Poland’s tax break for bigger families vs. Japan’s hard line on immigration. Practical takeaways for buyers, owners, and investors in a market that feels different city to city.
