Mortgage Rates Drop But Is Canada Headed For Stagflation?

Mortgage Rates Drop But Is Canada Headed For Stagflation? In this week’s episode, we discuss the Bank of Canada’s quarter point rate cut and what it means for variable and fixed mortgages. We break down why celebrating lower rates can be misleading if the economy is struggling, and why understanding the risks of variable rates is critical. We also cover Ottawa’s Housing Action Plan, how deferring development charges could accelerate new projects, and the impact of the Candice Greener Homes loan program ending for many homeowners. 00:00 Intro 00:54 New Sponsor: Easy Neon Signs 02:48 Discussion on Variable vs Fixed Rate Mortgages 06:07 How Lower Rates Impact Your Variable Rate Mortgage 07:30 Why Are Bonds Going Up? 09:07 Are We Looking At Stagflation? 12:06 Understanding Variable vs Fixed Rates 14:42 Rates Can Go Up Really Fast Too 17:32 Ottawa's Housing Action Plan 26:54 The End of the Greener Homes Loan Program 29:04 Mood Boosts Don’t Miss Out!
