Top player exodus and the pub brain-drain

Draschel:  Young people get nagged on all the time,  "When I was your age"   I already had this and this and this  Burnaby, Vancouver, Surrey, Victoria are all ridiculous. 1,500sq.ft. 3bdr house? Not a modular, not on a trailer park pad? 500,000CAD minimum. Most are 700,000. In the suburbs with more land than a subdivision lot, your looking at 1.2millBC minimum wage is  15$ hour. Living wage is 19hr. What you want is 20% down, but most start (and get themselves into trouble) with 10%. People doing well off, say making 30$hr and 60,000-70,000yr aren't fairing any better, despite what they got extra. They too sit in rentals, many for years and years. Moving north is frankly, the only option, but then still the market post-covid is really inflated and you have to deal with industrious mill smell and log-trucks ore-trucks all the time congesting roads. For most young people lower BC, affording a house before 50 is a pipe dream? At 19.00 hr I would say 60 This has led to the boom of crappy housing. Pig sty. Modular pre-fab siding homes, across large trailer parks outside mini - metros like Kelowna, Edmonton, Etc. Anywhere from 60 - 200k, you -can- get home, but you'll forever hate your unsavory neighbors, your parents won't call it a home ever, always park outside a garage? rofl no garages, and you pay pad-fees and the trailer park superintendent wrath will always be on your mind. Not uncommon people pay these pad fees and simply live in tents, mobile homes, decrepit fifth wheels too. Petty theft high.  Toronto and Mississauga are worse.
