The dual crises of the pandemic and housing affordability are making a seismic shift throughout the nation.
As millennials look to place down roots and begin households, they’re saying goodbye to Canada’s massive cities and settling in small cities.
However as Krista Hessey came upon for The New Actuality, massive change brings new challenges, together with tensions over whether or not newcomers will contribute to the native financial system and a ripple impact of spiking house costs.

Most of these people who are working from home and think that means they can move 500 km into nowhere will regret it. It's not that easy.
These are the same people who voted for JT, whose favourite past time is pricing out vulnerable Canadian women out of the domestic Canadian shelter market and causing them to move in with abusive partners just to be able to have a roof over their head. For neoliberal bourgeois JT this is worth it as long as it means his foreign billionaire champagne buddies bring their questionable offshore money and park it in Canada by treating the Canadian domestic shelter market as their personal stock market playground. But JT correct a question asker once and said "teehee we prefer to say humankind not mankind." So there you go, he is pro-women. That seals the deal of course. Last time I checked minorities were also Canadians, and Canadian minorities are also being price out of the market by JTs international billionaire buddies. How can you be pro-woman and pro-minority if you are doing this to them? But I guess it is working, 30% of the country voted for him yet again. And again he obviously lied, he said he would ban foreign ownership (even though he had 6 years to do so and willingly chose not to do it). Instead his policies are making even more difficult for hard working Canadians (including women and minorities) to buy for the first time. He put a mortgage stress test. Meanwhile the issue is foreign billionaire buying with cash and not even taking on a mortgage. A recent report unsurprisingly revealed 30 billion dollars worth of GTA properties in the past decade was bought by questionable offshore money. But if you are Canadian: Needed an 80k income and 100k down to buy a shoe box in the sky? Too bad, Justin will now require you to have at least a 130k salary and save 150k down with his mortgage stress test aimed at making you even more likely to lose to his international billionaire buddies. Tough luck if you didn't get a 50k raise in past past year. Justin loves you though, he called you humankind and stood up for you when someone made the crime against humanity of using the term "mankind." Priorities.
Greens are like watermelons, green strippes outside and bloody inside.
By leaving the mega metropoles they are destroying the exact land plots they pledged to protect.
Peoples are Green only when it’s time to harass others. They couldn’t care less about the actual terrain.
This is such good news, Irelands small towns suffer from younger people leaving. Nice to hear some good news!
very selfish

"I have watched the whole Rittenhouse case.

😳 I didn't know that the Police were told to stand down as businesses were destroyed.
🙈 I didn't know that Kyles Dad, Grandma and Friends all lived in Kenosha, 20 minutes from where he resided with his Mom part time in Illinois. 🤔🤔( HE WORKED IN KENOSHA)
😳I didn't know that Joseph Rosenbaum knocked him down twice 😱 and then attempted to kick him with lethal force to the head.😱
😞 I didn't know🤔 that Huber had hit him in the head 2x with a skateboard.
😱 I didn't know Gaige Grosskreutz, a felon in possession of firearm, aimed his gun at Kyle first, as he admitted on the stand. 😱
😳I also didn't know that in the State of Wisconsin, it is legal for Kyle to have a gun, even at 17 (which was why the gun charge was dismissed).
🤔 I didn't know that Kyle did not cross state lines with a gun he wasn't supposed to have. The gun never left KENOSHA WISCONSIN.
The rightful gun owner did, as he was legally permitted to do.👍
😡 I also didn't realize that Rosenbaum was a 11 COUNTS OF RAPE, convicted 5 times

Turning a small town into suburbia, defeats the purpose of living in a small town
How millennials are becoming slaves for banks and rich developers. Thanks boomers for being a money and power vacuum and not passing anything down. The boomers about to collapse the system. Better hope they treated their kids well.
The typical millennials parents bought their house in the 80's & 90's for around $150K, its now worth $1 million. A millennial makes more than their parents did back then yet still can't buy a house…but rent is more than their parents mortgage was.
A year spent killing the elderly then giving away their houses and this is the angle the news media come up with. You are being poisoned by lies!
I moved much further, to Colombia. I'm much happier here.
This little town will be overrun by Starbucks mamas with their baby joggers and SUV’s.
What a joke I'm sure the minute the internet goes down they will lose their minds. That generation are the biggest babies in the history body human civilization…I'm sure they will blame it on white privilege…..this is so fake ..I'll go throw up now …god help us …why do they have to throw the lesbian thing in or face …we don't care if you are gay or want to chop your balls of and pretend to be a woman…
They are going to destroy the country to the ground.
It's better to live in a small town, or in a provinces or counties to work on farm, or make simple life than to buy anything on big city. Many people spent their life at big city. There's worthless.
it sucks that the locals are being forced out
if it cost 900k what is the point ?
Of course they are. For better health. But I hope they won't take the pollution, vehicles, technology, over population, fast food and greed along.
So what companies/industries are these young people going to work at in a radius of greater than 300 kms outside of big cities ? Or are they all going to have to grow their food in summer and live of the land ?
Also, I just checked. An older (1960s build) detached home in AFFORDABLE Markdale sold for 535,000. If that is supposed to be as affordable as it gets (even after moving way outside of any mid sized city), we are screwed as a whole as a country….
Wait until they have an accident, or need emergency services. Everyone needs to be within a reasonable distance from hospitals.
Bringing highly educated people into small towns is bound to cause conflict. They are full of uneducated backwards ideas and values. 100 year old opinions and beliefs that are invalid outside of their own backwards little communities.
Not sure what this segment accomplished. Interviews should have been given to long time residents not newbies that just moved here and literally have no idea about what goes on in our small town. I've been living here 25 yrs since I was a child. I've seen some change however much of it not for the better. Stores are closed and what they didn't show on TV was all the "for rent" store fronts. Markdale is sadly still a ghost town. Yes we have 2 stop lights, tim hortons and a Dollarama. That's great but we need more progress. We have 2 cannabis stores but hardly anywhere to eat thst is affordable. It's pretty pathetic actually. The cost of houses is insane while wages here are low. So really only city people can afford. They are buying the homes here, driving the prices up, making it impossible for most people to ever buy or even rent a place.
I was lucky my parents helped me buy a 3.2 million dollar home in Vancouver now it went up to almost 4 million in assessed value but likely wont sell any time soon given our great rate environment and low supply of homes. Great long term investment overall canadian real estate one of the best commodities
That is wonderful , CELESTE , PLEASE CALL YOUR GRANDMA , I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH .
In 1978 our parents bought a brand new 4 bedroom home for $ 39,999.
Making $ 24,000 a year in wages .
$1,000,000 for an average home now , $36, 000 a year average wages.
F'N INSANITY.
All the boomers are so mad, and for what? We can’t afford to survive in the city any longer. We deserve to live our best lives in peace
Apparently getting into politics feeds you well at all levels.
It all has to do with money. Millenials don't have the income or savings to live in Big cities like Vancouver, Montreal or Toronto.
Liberals ruined the big cities? Better move to places that are still good and vote liberal there.
Unfortunately, the cell towers come with them.
Leave the city for a small town. Turn the small town into a small city. The cycle continues.
White flight! That's why I moved away from Toronto.
My town has Vancouver prices without being in van
Trailer cost 2800 dollars plus utilities in my town that's an expensive shed
Canada may have once been a land of opportunity . Now it is just a place of very greedy people and brainless and entitled politicians .
stay in the city. don't ruin rural communities
this country is a 💩 hole now
…. Governmental promotional video folks. All politicians and media are mentally ill people!
Where are your husbands and children, do they like it too?
Maybe because the cities are overrun by third world trash
Calgary is the only major affordable city in Canada for current and future generations Canadians and Immigrants
As a millennial with three GenZ adult sons, how is it possible other millennials are just starting now?
Small town Canadian here.
If you move to a rural area and can’t adapt to rural lifestyle.
Please stay In the city, we don’t want you here.
Chapmans does not pay high wages and internet isn't as big as an issue as it was 3-5 years ago. Listen up Chapmans and start paying your employees better, vaxed and non-vaxed!
