Yeah that seems good for everyone involved, actually. Like, I realize this might be intended to cause worry but people who own multiple homes in several nations are not my friends.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

While I agree, I'm guessing most of these properties will be purchased by a company like Black Rock or as additional houses for US citizens, since I'm guessing most properties are vacation destinations.
It's probably better that Americans own the properties, but I think it's splitting hairs, and I think it's worse if they go to a company rather than a Canadian. Unless that Canadian is a billionaire, then fuck 'em.
It's amazing it's taken a second term for Canadians to figure it out en mass.
People don’t usually throw away good assets because one nutter got a job. Second time round though, and with the possibility that he won’t ever leave office makes that asset risky.
Plenty of other reason to GTFO of Florida on top of Trump. Climate change raising sea levels and intensifying hurricanes, inability to get insurance and a shitbag for a Governor and shitbags in the state legislature.
Well, Florida yes. Pulling out now is a good idea.
Mango Mussolini wasn’t nearly as antagonistic towards Canada the first time around.
Honestly, probably a good thing, politics aside. These areas are all ones that are gonna get fucked by climate change tomorrow. My only hope is that it's blackrock's stupid """investments""" getting destroyed in a hurricane or getting turned into a desert.
So prices going down yet?
Not if banks and corporations are the ones buying them.
Line must go up fool.
Too poor to be a line.
There's a different line for the poor.
