I'm not sure if you are trolling or not.

Yes I think housing is expensive in Canada. How is that related to the fact that I find your idea of banning an entire profession just because you can't find a buyer/seller that doesn't agree with you, unacceptable?
It is related because your response to any criticism is: no one forced you at gunpoint to buy a house.

Well, thats the answer to your own complaints. No one is forcing you at gunpoint to move to Canada and then buy a house here. Therefore, your criticism is invalid.

Lol what? You can propose a change to housing regulations if you are unhappy with it. Get involved, propose something.

I was not forced to come to Canada. You are not forced to hire a realtor. We have choices. Don't like them? Do something about it, it's that simple.

Good lord I feel like I'm talking to a wall lol.

Yes I think more public housing in Canada would be beneficial. No I don't think I am "forced" to buy anything because there is no Singapore house style in Canada and I can proceed to buy if I accept this market reality.

Same goes for you buddy. Yes you would like to navigate a market where most people don't use realtors. No you are not forced to use a realtor and you can proceed to buy/sell if you accept this market reality.

Acting like a 5 years old and cry about "I am forced to hire a realtor" just because this isn't a common market practice and you can't find a buyer, won't help much. Either you accept the market reality, either you keep complaining forever.

Acting like a 5 years old and cry about Justin Trudeau and high housing prices won't help much. Either you accept the market reality, either you keep complaining forever.

Then stop complaining LOL. You already lost!
I'm not complaining, I bought my house and still believe Canada needs more social housing so the young generation has a chance of owning a property. And I will give my vote to the politician who does the most in that sense.

You keep complaining about being forced to hire a realtor, when there are no such regulation in Canada. It's only your choice, sorry buddy.

Lol....here we are...arguing over semantics again. You are complaining. I quoted your posts full of complaints. You can keep denying it. If you choose to invent your own meaning from words like 'complain' and 'force', I cant help you.

There are two big nuances between you and me: 1- I never said I was forced to do anything, actually quite the contrary and it's written in my post and 2- I accepted the market reality and moved on.

You're just inventing a conspiracy theory about a regulation that would force buyers/sellers to hire realtors - when it just doesn't exist.

It's fine you'll get over it when you are ready to accept market reality.

Have a good evening.

Lol....more random 'nuances'....ok...I never mentioned politicians and compared to another country. Thats why I am not complaining and you are complaining. Think this is absurd? Well, thats how you sound.

Also, I never said there is a regulation that forces me to hire an agent. Please quote me if I do. You are just straight up lying.

Leave Canada if you dont like it.
