      Canada will get warmer too you know. From nice and cool to nice and warm. Same as here in Norhern Europe*, and I believe the influx of rich “Southerners” will increase, if it hasn’t already.

      * I can’t believe how far South Canada goes. The most populated area is on a latitude with Central Europe. I live on the same latitude as, say, Anchorage. I can’t even find a reasonably-sized town in Canada. But afaiu climate is very different because of the Gulf stream?

      I imagine the wealthy are over represented in the segment of Canadians looking to buy American homes, and most feel reasonably confident that overrides everything else.

    Here’s hoping for Drake and Bieber being among those 20%.

    Do you remember a white Canadian reggae artist called Snow, best known for “Informer”, in the early 90s? He pretty much disappeared from the music scene after he stayed in Canada.

    Economy is going to contract especially come spring. These snowbirds most of the time were more kind than locals. People have no idea how much money they pump into local economies.

    Hopefully this is advantageous to midterms but who knows.
