Canadian households may have trade jitters, but that isn’t stopping them from borrowing. Household debt climbed 0.2% (+$6.2 billion) to reach $3.04 trillion in February—double 2019’s growth rate. Mortgage credit drove 84% of the month’s increase, indicating refinancing and new housing are making up for the lack of existing home sales.

The number two at Canada’s central bank just made it clear she isn’t a policy cheerleader, like the Governor has been in recent months. Bank of Canada (BoC) Deputy Governor Carolyn Rogers addressed finance professionals at the Economic Club of Canada last week, explaining the usual mortgage market risks. It got more interesting when she trekked into the rarely discussed issue of cheap credit and extended amortizations and how they actually erode affordability, even though politicians claim otherwise. The Deputy Governor warned policymakers that “there’s no free lunch,” and tinkering with the mortgage market can have the opposite impact while amplifying longer term risks to households, and the greater economy. https://betterdwelling.com/bank-of-canada-warns-policymakers-against-tinkering-with-mortgages/

Something devastating is almost certainly going to happen BEFORE Jan 6, 2025, especially if the election can't be stolen like the democrats are attempting to do . . . EU Warns "Citizens" To Prepare For A Nuclear Disaster A report published on Wednesday by former Finnish President Sauli Niinisto, says that EU citizens should start stockpiling three days’ worth of goods in order to be ready for various potential disasters, including a nuclear conflict. The initiative is part of the EU’s push to make the bloc more resilient in the face of supposedly mounting threats, ranging from natural disasters to a major military conflict, according to a report by RT. The report encourages EU households to stockpile “basic self-sufficiency” goods that would last for at least 72 hours for fear of potential shortages in case of “armed aggression through conventional means” or other hostile activities such as “cyberattacks or the use of chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear weapons.”​ https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/eu-warns-citizens-prepare-nuclear-disaster

The country managed to add 504k people in the first half of the year, but virtually no growth in active businesses. That a lot of people that required no additional services. Not a crisis per se, but it emphasizes the weakness of households when record population growth is met with virtually no new businesses. https://betterdwelling.com/canada-added-500k-people-but-no-new-businesses/
