Introduction: From Fog to Fresh Water

High in the arid hills above Lima and Arequipa, Peru, a quiet revolution is underway. Where rainfall is scarce and rivers are distant, engineers and villagers are working together to harvest water directly from the air. Their tool isn’t a machine or a pipe — it’s a net.

These vertical fog-catching systems, often several meters tall, stand like sentinels in the mist. The nets, sometimes coated with biomimetic materials such as cactus fiber, capture microscopic droplets from the air. The moisture condenses, drips into gutters, and is stored in tanks for drinking, irrigation, and livestock.

Each installation can collect 300–400 liters per day, and when scaled across dozens of nets, these systems can support entire communities. What began as a grassroots idea is now inspiring countries from Morocco and Chile to Namibia and India — all searching for new ways to survive water scarcity.

1. The Global Water Crisis — and Why Fog Matters

Water scarcity affects more than 2 billion people globally. Many live in regions that receive less than 250 mm of rain per year — technically deserts — yet remain rich in fog and humidity.
Peru’s Pacific coast is a textbook example: it’s one of the driest deserts in the world, but dense coastal fog, known locally as “garúa,” forms almost daily from May to November.

Traditional water systems fail here. Wells hit salty groundwater; rainfall is rare; and water trucks are expensive. For years, Lima’s poorest residents paid up to ten times more per liter for trucked water than wealthier neighborhoods with city connections.

So locals began to ask: if fog wets your clothes and coats the hills in dew, could it fill your buckets too?

2. How Fog Nets Work

Fog is essentially a cloud at ground level, made of tiny suspended water droplets. When this moist air passes through a fine mesh, droplets collide with the fibers, merge, and drip down.

A fog-harvesting system typically consists of:

• A vertical mesh panel, 4–10 m wide and several meters tall

• A collection trough at the base to channel water into storage

• Support poles and anchors to resist high winds

• Storage tanks for collected water

Studies by Otto Klemm et al. (Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology, 2012) found that each square meter of mesh can yield 3–10 liters of water per day under good conditions. That may sound small, but on a 40 m² system, it means 120–400 liters daily — enough for a household’s needs in rural Peru.

👉 Source: Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology – Fog as a Fresh-Water Resource (PMC3357847)

3. Lima’s Hills: Communities Leading Innovation

On Lima’s outskirts, thousands of families live in hillside settlements without running water. In Villa María del Triunfo, a network of fog catchers now stretches across the ridge — shimmering green against the brown desert.

Local NGO Movimiento Peruanos Sin Agua, founded by engineer Abel Cruz, has built over 600 fog collectors in the area. Each one costs around $600–800 USD and can provide up to 400 liters of water per day. The community uses the water for washing, irrigation, and — after filtration — drinking.

According to the London School of Economics (LSE) Latin America blog, just 23 fog catchers installed in 2020 provided over 10,000 liters per day for 60 residents, surpassing the World Health Organization’s recommended per-person water minimum of 50 liters daily.

👉 Source: LSE Latin America Blog – How Fog Catchers Improve Water Scarcity

4. The Science Behind the Nets

The efficiency of fog nets depends on climate, topography, and materials.

Ideal Conditions

• Frequent fog events (especially coastal or mountain fogs)

• Consistent wind speeds (3–10 m/s)

• Elevated terrain perpendicular to prevailing winds

Materials and Design

Modern fog nets use polypropylene Raschel mesh, which balances capture efficiency and drainage. Researchers have experimented with hydrophilic and cactus-inspired coatings, improving droplet adhesion and flow. The “CloudFisher” design, used in Morocco, withstands winds up to 120 km/h while capturing 30–60 liters per day per net.

👉 Source: WasserStiftung – CloudFisher Project

In Peru, similar adaptations — including cactus fiber–based coatings and improved gutter systems — have increased yields and reduced maintenance. These biomimetic approaches echo the desert plants’ natural ability to collect dew.

5. Measured Impact: Data from the Field

These results demonstrate that fog nets can move beyond pilot projects and support long-term community infrastructure.

6. Social Dimensions: Ownership, Fairness, and Trust

As successful as the technology is, fog harvesting only endures when communities trust the process.

In earlier projects, lack of training or local ownership led to neglect and system failure. By contrast, Abel Cruz’s model prioritizes local leadership — training residents to install, maintain, and manage distribution.

The Frontiers in Water (2021) journal emphasized that social and institutional factors — governance, gender inclusion, and transparent management — are as vital as engineering performance.
👉 Source: Frontiers in Water – Review of Fog Water Harvesting Systems

This alignment of community, science, and policy fosters not only sustainability but trust — the cornerstone of any shared resource.

7. Beyond Peru: Fog Harvesting Around the World

Peru’s success has inspired similar efforts globally:

• Chile (Atacama Desert) – Pioneering fog-catching systems since the 1990s, generating up to 10,000 liters/day for local villages.

• Morocco (Mount Boutmezguida) – The world’s largest fog project supplies over 1,600 villagers with fresh water.

• Eritrea & Ethiopia – Pilot projects serve schools and pastoral communities.

• India (Rajasthan) – Researchers adapting CloudFisher models for monsoon off-seasons.

👉 Source: ActiveSustainability – Fog Catchers: A Solution for Drought

Globally, scientists estimate that scaling up fog collection in suitable zones could yield tens of millions of liters per day — enough to supplement water supply for hundreds of thousands of people.

8. Environmental and Economic Benefits

Environmental

• No energy input: Fog nets are passive, requiring no electricity.

• Carbon-neutral: No emissions from pumping or treatment.

• Ecosystem support: Restores vegetation and reduces soil erosion in fog-fed “lomas.”

Economic

• Low cost: $600–1,000 USD per collector, lasting 10+ years.

• Low maintenance: Simple cleaning and re-tensioning.

• Reduced dependence: Communities save up to 80% on purchased water.

Public Health

Access to clean water improves hygiene, reduces disease, and empowers women and children who often bear the burden of water collection.

9. Limitations and Real-World Challenges

Fog harvesting isn’t a silver bullet. Key limitations include:

• Seasonal variability: Lima’s fog season lasts about eight months; production drops during hot, dry periods.

• Maintenance needs: Dust, insects, and damage can reduce output.

• Water quality: Fog water must be tested for airborne pollutants before consumption.

• Scalability: Logistics for storage and distribution remain complex for larger populations.

Yet, despite these challenges, fog nets often provide a lifeline — especially in regions where no other sustainable water option exists.

10. Lessons for Policymakers and Planners

1. Assess microclimate data before investing — fog frequency and wind direction dictate success.

2. Incentivize local manufacturing of fog nets to reduce costs.

3. Integrate fog harvesting into water policy under climate adaptation strategies.

4. Create maintenance training programs and community management structures.

5. Provide micro-finance or subsidy models to empower self-installations.

Inclusion in national climate-resilience programs could bring fog-harvesting from niche innovation to mainstream sustainability.

11. The Cactus Connection: Nature Inspires Technology

Nature has long mastered water collection. In the Peruvian desert, cacti and desert beetles capture dew and fog using micro-grooved surfaces that channel water droplets toward their roots or mouths.

Engineers now mimic these surfaces using cactus fiber coatings or hydrophilic polymers on mesh nets. Early research from arXiv (2024) demonstrates that changing fiber shape and wettability dramatically improves droplet flow and reduces clogging.

👉 Source: arXiv – Mesh Design for Fog Harvesting (2024)

By learning from desert plants, humans are building systems that can transform fog into fresh water more efficiently — using the same principles nature has used for millions of years.

12. A Model for Global Resilience

As climate change intensifies droughts, fog harvesting offers hope for communities from North Africa to South America.
It proves that sustainability doesn’t always require advanced technology — sometimes, it’s about harnessing what’s already in the air.

With proper design, community involvement, and long-term policy support, fog nets could supply millions of liters of clean water every day — helping nations achieve UN Sustainable Development Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation.

Conclusion: Turning Mist into Trust

The fog nets of Peru aren’t just collecting water — they’re collecting trust, dignity, and independence.
They show that resilience begins not with wealth or infrastructure, but with ingenuity and cooperation. In a world growing hotter and drier, these green nets on desert hillsides stand as a powerful reminder: even in the absence of rain, there is always hope in the air.

Market overview

TRREB (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)’s September 2025 data show a GTA (Greater Toronto Area) market that is firmer on the sales side but still price-sensitive.

Ø  Sales rose 8.5% YoY (year over year) to 5,592,

Ø  New listings grew 4% YoY (year over year) to 19,260,

Ø  Active listings remained high at 29,394.

Ø  The average price settled at $1,059,377 (–4.7% YoY [year over year]),

On a seasonally adjusted basis, price levels were flat to slightly down (HPI –0.5% MoM [month over month]; average price +0.2% MoM [month over month]). In short: more deals are getting done after the Sept 17 BoC (Bank of Canada) rate cut to 2.50%, but buyers still have leverage. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

Price, sales, and listings trends (YoY [year over year] and MoM [month over month])

• Sales: 5,592 (Sep-25) vs 5,155 (Sep-24): +8.5% YoY (year over year). Lower borrowing costs combined with accumulated demand from spring/summer helped momentum. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• New listings: 19,260 (Sep-25), +4% YoY (year over year); SNLR (Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio) ≈ 34.6%, indicating conditions favourable to buyers in many sub-markets. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• Active listings: 29,394, sustaining MOI (Months of Inventory) ≈ 4.6, a level historically consistent with balanced to slightly buyer-tilted conditions. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• Prices: Average price $1,059,377 (–4.7% YoY [year over year]);

• HPI (Home Price Index) Composite –5.5% YoY (year over year);

• MoM (month over month): HPI –0.5%, average +0.2% —. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

Market pace & absorption

• LDOM (Listing Days on Market) ~33;

• PDOM (Property Days on Market) ~51:

  • Listings take about a month, but cumulative time for re-listed properties is longer. That corroborates a bid-ask gap that narrows via price adjustments or concessions. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

Segment breakdown (Detached / Semi / Town / Condo)

• Detached: $1,359,030 average  [Toronto Regional Real Estate Board] total) on 2,661 sales. Freehold remains the “needs-based” segment; pricing is micro-neighbourhood specific with bigger swings in luxury bands. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• Semi-detached: $1,297,830 on 506 sales — smaller sample sizes create more volatility; well-renovated semis in the 416 (Toronto core area code) continue to command premiums. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• Townhouse (att/row): $1,015,543 on 517 sales — the “missing middle” alternative offers price efficiency but competes with detached at the margin when rates ease. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

• Condo apartment: $681,115 on 1,437 sales — the price leader for entry buyers and investors, but facing inventory pressure and investor cash-flow math. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

City (416) vs 905 notes

416 (Toronto core) condo pricing is modestly higher than 905 (surrounding GTA suburbs) (e.g., condo apartment $681,115 in 416 vs $653,407 in 905 during September), reflecting location premiums and amenity density. Freehold premiums persist in central corridors with constrained lot supply. (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board)

Summary and High-Level Takeaways

A British Columbia Supreme Court judge recently overturned a $57,700 award that the RTB had granted to a tenant. The initial award was for 12 months’ rent, based on a claim that the landlord had ended the tenancy in bad faith (claiming the unit for renovation or use). But the court found the hearing process was unfair because the tenant intentionally mis-served the notice—sending it to a wrong address and preventing the landlord from participating. The result: the award was quashed, and the tenant was ordered to pay the landlord’s legal costs plus $3,500 in special costs as a penalty.

Two legal pillars led to this outcome:

1. RTB Service Rules — The Residential Tenancy Branch requires strict, prescribed methods for serving notices (in person, agent, or registered mail). If none are feasible, one must obtain substituted service permission. (See “Serve notice for dispute resolution” guide)

2. Procedural Fairness — Courts require that individuals affected by decisions receive proper notice and a fair opportunity to respond. A hearing conducted without giving one side meaningful notice is fundamentally unfair.

Timeline of Events in the Case

• 2021: The tenant and landlord entered into a fixed-term lease that would end in 2023, with the landlord’s stated purpose to renovate thereafter.

• Late 2022 to March 2023: The tenant stopped paying rent, was issued a 10-Day Notice to End Tenancy, and vacated the unit. (Money.ca provides background)

• September 2023: The tenant applied to the RTB and won the dispute by default (landlord was absent).

• September 2025: On judicial review, the Supreme Court (Justice Hoffman) quashed the RTB award due to procedural unfairness. The tenant was saddled with legal costs and a punitive penalty.

How Service Rules Led to the Award’s Undoing

Under B.C. law, serving a “Notice of Proceeding” properly is essential. The rules are detailed in the government’s “Serve notice for dispute resolution” guide:

• You must serve the documents within three days of their availability. (Government of British Columbia)

• Acceptable methods: personal delivery, to an agent, or registered mail. (Government of British Columbia)

• If these methods are impossible, the party must request substituted service and attach that decision to the proof of service. (Government of British Columbia)

• Proof of service must accompany your submission (receipt, affidavit, etc.). (Government of British Columbia)

In the case in question, the court determined the tenant deliberately mailed the notice to an incorrect address, meaning the landlord never had a real chance to appear or defend. That tactic crossed the line from asserting a claim to frustrating fairness. The court held this was a process violation serious enough to void the entire award.

Why the Courts Override RTB Decisions in Some Cases

The RTB is an expert tribunal with authority to adjudicate many landlord–tenant disputes. Courts generally defer to such tribunals on factual or technical questions. Yet, courts will intervene if:

• Notice was deficient or misdelivered

• One side was denied the chance to respond

• Evidence was withheld

• Basic fairness principles were violated

In this case, because the landlord was effectively kept out of the hearing, the court found the process so flawed that no amount of factual correctness could fix it. The default award, however favorable to the tenant, could not survive procedural unfairness.

Proposal: Punitive Measures Against Dishonest Service

There should be punitive consequences when either party—tenant or landlord—intentionally flouts any rules to gain advantage. In this case, the court already imposed “special costs” on the tenant ($3,500) above normal costs as a penal measure. This is a start.
But more consistent, visible penalties—like fines, reduction of claims, or bar from reapplying for substituted service—would deter dishonest conduct and protect the integrity of the process for all parties.

Practical Tips & Compliance Checklist

For Landlords

• Always keep your mailing and business address current in lease and RTB filings.

• Keep a log of tenant communications: letters, emails, texts.

• If you believe a decision was made without your knowledge, apply promptly for judicial review (within the time limit, often 60 days). (Supreme Court BC)

For Tenants

• Follow service rules exactly—no shortcuts or guesswork.

• If you can’t locate the other party, apply for substituted service and retain a copy of that order.

• Keep proofs of service (receipts, affidavits, etc.).

• Know that if you mislead the tribunal or fail to properly serve, you may lose not only your claim, but be penalized.

In 2025, the rent-versus-own decision in Canada is no longer a one-way argument. After years when rents surged and borrowing costs climbed, the landscape has shifted: the Bank of Canada has lowered its policy rate to 2.50% (Sept. 17, 2025), easing the cost of money and resetting expectations about what ownership might look like over the next cycle. (Bank of Canada)

But lower rates don’t mean a free-for-all. Canadian mortgage borrowers still face a strict minimum qualifying rate (MQR)—the greater of the contract rate plus 2 percentage points or 5.25%—a safeguard designed to ensure households can handle potential payment shocks. That rule shapes budgets, price ceilings, and timelines, especially for first-time buyers watching every dollar. (OSFI)

Meanwhile, rents—once the headline story of 2022–2023—have cooled. Nationally, asking rents have posted a string of year-over-year declines through mid-to-late 2025, with recent reports placing the average at roughly $2,123–$2,137 and marking the 11th–12th straight month of annual declines. That shift follows a long climb and signals a more balanced market for tenants than many expected a year ago. (Rentals.ca)

On prices, the national non-seasonally adjusted average sat near $664,078 in August 2025, up 1.8% year-over-year—hardly the frenzy of prior years, but not capitulation either. It’s the posture of a market catching its breath, with regional differences that matter far more than any single national number. (CREA)

What does this mean in human terms? For a household deciding between another lease and a purchase, the choice is less about chasing a perfect market call and more about reading one’s own life horizon. Renting buys optionality—the right to move for a new job, to pause and build a larger down payment, to keep cash liquid in an uncertain economy. Ownership buys permanence and a disciplined savings habit: every mortgage payment chips away at principal, and every year of inflation nudges replacement costs and (often) property values upward. But permanence brings volatility: property taxes rise and fall with assessments, furnaces fail in February, and condo reserve studies occasionally insist on bigger monthly fees.

This emotional and financial calculus plays out differently across the country. In Toronto and Vancouver, even with rents softening, the gap between monthly rent and the full carrying cost of ownership (mortgage, taxes, insurance, and fees) can be wide; in these markets, buying typically shines over longer horizons where principal repayment and gradual appreciation have time to work. In Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Quebec City, Regina, and Saskatoon, lower purchase prices compress that gap, allowing ownership math to “win” sooner for households that are stable and intend to stay put. In university and government hubs like Ottawa, Kingston, and Halifax, rents have stabilized relative to their recent peaks, and vacancy is expected to edge higher in 2025—context that can tilt near-term decisions toward renting if flexibility is paramount.

Market update

The new balance of 2025 is this: neither path is “wrong.” Instead, there are right timelines and right cash-flow buffers for each path. If your next six to eight years look anchored—career, schools, community—homeownership often becomes a quiet wealth engine, partly because of the forced savings effect (principal paydown) and partly because of time in the market, not timing the market. If your life is mobile or your cash cushion is thin, renting while you build savings and watch conditions normalize is not only prudent—it’s strategic.

There is also a broader policy backdrop to consider. The BoC isn’t cutting rates to reignite speculation; it’s trying to balance risks in an economy marked by slower growth and a softer labour market, even as inflation pressures ebb from their peaks. Rate cuts have reopened the conversation for many would-be buyers, but the stress test keeps that conversation grounded in what households can withstand over a full cycle. Together, those two forces define the new middle path of 2025: measured optimism for buyers with solid buffers, renewed breathing room for renters who need time to plan. (Bank of Canada)

If you’re weighing the decision today, treat your housing choice like a portfolio move:

• Run the math at the MQR to see how much margin you truly have. (OSFI)

• Stress test your cash flow for taxes, insurance, maintenance, and condo fees; build an emergency fund for repairs.

• Model a realistic horizon (5–7+ years) that allows appreciation and amortization to matter.

• Compare local rents with total ownership costs—not just the mortgage payment. In some cities, the rent discount in 2025 buys meaningful flexibility; in others, the ownership premium may be smaller than you think given today’s rates and flat price trends. (Rentals.ca)

In short: renting is not “throwing money away”—it’s buying time and choice. Owning is not “always better”—it’s a commitment to a place and a balance sheet. The right answer in 2025 depends on your city, your cash flow, and your story. For many Canadians who expect to stay, owning still compounds quietly in the background. For those in motion, renting is the right tool for the season you’re in. This year, Canada finally offers room for both truths to be true.

What’s happening in 2025
The CPKC Holiday Train returns November 19–December 21, 2025, sending two illuminated trains to 196 communities across Canada and the U.S. The Canadian leg launches in Montréal and ends in Gleichen, Alberta; the U.S. leg runs Hermon, Maine to Kenmare, North Dakota. Each stop features a short, free concert from the side of a railcar, with the audience encouraged to donate to the local food bank. CPKCR+2Trains+2

Toronto & GTA context
Toronto typically draws strong turnout, with prior years seeing evening crowds and west-end yard appearances. Exact 2025 stop details and times are set on the official CPKC schedule PDFs and can shift due to operations, so residents should verify the latest times before heading out. gis.cpkcr.com

The model: free shows, local impact
Holiday Train shows are free, but the program asks for food or monetary donations for local food banks. Over 26 years, the train has raised $26M+ and collected 5.4M+ pounds of food—numbers that place it among the country’s most visible seasonal corporate-community partnerships. Progressive Railroading

Why it matters

1. Awareness & timing: Food banks see heightened need in Q4; a marquee event in late November/December drives both donations and media visibility. 2) Local multipliers: Dollars collected stay with the local food bank partners, which can stretch cash farther than retail shoppers due to wholesale procurement. 3) Place-making: Bringing music to rail sidings creates family-friendly “micro-festivals” that activate under-used public-industrial spaces for a night. CPKCR

Operations & reliability
Trains are sensitive to weather and network conditions. CPKC publishes real-time updates and encourages checking channels the day of a show. That’s especially relevant in the GTA where yard access, safety perimeters, and strong turnout can affect crowd control and parking. CPKCR

Performers & programming
Lineups rotate by region and date; 2025 performers include American Authors among others, with CPKC’s site and rail media listing artists by stop. Families can expect 25–30 minute sets with seasonal songs and originals, plus on-car lighting displays. Trains

Best practices for attendees

• Check the official schedule PDF for exact time and location; arrive early.

• Bring a donation—non-perishables or cash for the partner food bank.

• Dress for weather and plan your transit; parking near yards is limited. gis.cpkcr.com+1

Long-term implications
The Holiday Train’s durability suggests a template for corporate citizenship: consistent annual cadence, hyper-local partners, and tangible outcomes. For Toronto, the program functions as a seasonal civic ritual alongside the Santa Claus Parade and neighborhood light festivals, broadening the city’s holiday calendar with an all-ages, donation-first event that requires no ticket and little planning beyond warm clothing and a can of soup.

Date: September 2025

Overview

After three consecutive months of economic decline, Canada’s GDP grew by 0.2% in July 2025, according to preliminary data from Statistics Canada. The modest rebound signals renewed momentum across key sectors—despite global pressures and the ongoing impact of U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods.

Sector-by-Sector Highlights

Growth in July was driven by improvements in: - Manufacturing: A notable bounce-back as supply chains stabilized. - Utilities: Increased demand supported stronger output. - Accommodation & Food Services: A summer boost in travel and local tourism lifted activity.

However, some sectors continued to show signs of strain: - Real Estate & Construction: Remained soft amid high borrowing costs. - Wholesale Trade & Transportation: Struggled with trade uncertainty and weaker demand.

U.S. Tariffs: A Persistent Drag

Even with the July growth, Canadian exporters face significant challenges. U.S. tariffs on steel, aluminum, and automotive components continue to raise costs and disrupt trade flows—particularly in central Canada. Despite these headwinds, Canadian businesses are showing flexibility and strength.

What This Means for Consumers

The GDP rebound suggests the Canadian economy still has fuel in the tank. While growth is modest, it reduces the immediate risk of a recession. Combined with August’s weak job numbers, the Bank of Canada now faces a delicate decision: hold rates or begin easing to support momentum.

For everyday Canadians, this could mean: - Continued high interest rates—for now - Slightly improved confidence in employment and earnings - A chance for mortgage and lending rates to stabilize in coming months

Why Local Support Matters

July’s growth proves one thing: Canadians are resilient. Buying Canadian-made products and supporting local businesses is more than patriotic—it’s a practical way to build economic strength from the ground up.

Final Thoughts

This modest rebound doesn’t mean the economy is out of the woods. But it’s a step in the right direction. If upcoming inflation and job data align, the Bank of Canada may soon move toward rate cuts—giving consumers and businesses some relief.

Until then, the message is clear: stay steady, support local, and buy Canadian.

Introduction

In a bold regulatory move, the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO) has secured court orders to freeze the assets of the former principals of iPro Realty Ltd. The decision follows complex allegations around missing or misused trust funds, diversion of deposits, and intercompany transfers.

As the legal drama unfolds, it’s critical for buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals across Ontario to understand what this means—both for immediate transactions and for broader industry trust.

Background: The Collapse of iPro Realty

• On August 19, 2025, iPro Realty shuttered its 17 offices, affecting approximately 2,400 agents. (REM)

• At the time, RECO revealed a shortfall of $10.5 million from the brokerage’s trust accounts. (REM)

• But further forensic investigations suggest a far larger and more intricate diversion of funds, reportedly nearing $30 million. (REM)

• The newly uncovered evidence presents a web of transactions where funds that should have been held in trust were commingled, routed to general accounts, or transferred to affiliated entities. (REM)

What Court Orders Were Granted

1. Mareva Injunction (Asset Freeze)

Justice William Black of the Ontario Superior Court granted a Mareva injunction that bars the respondents from disposing, transferring, or hiding assets until the litigation is resolved. (REM)

2. Norwich Relief / Document Production

A Norwich order compels banks and financial institutions to hand over records of accounts and assets held in the names of the respondents. This is central to tracing where trust funds went. (REM)

3. Carve-Outs for Living & Legal Expenses

The court allowed the ex-principals to apply for a limited carve-out authorizing use of certain funds for ordinary living expenses and legal representation. This ensures the freeze isn’t absolute. (REM)

4. Named Respondents & Entities

The litigation doesn’t just name founders Fedele Colucci and Rui Alves, but also several associated companies they direct or control, such as:

• IP Holding Realty Ltd.

• Hippo Holdings Corporation

• Sutton Group Professional Real Estate Services Inc.

• Alco Motors Ltd.

• Alco Rent-A-Car Ltd. (REM)

These entities are alleged to have “knowingly assisted” in the diversion of funds or to have received monies impressed with a trust. (REM)

Forensic Findings & Alleged Money Flow

RECO’s evidentiary filings uncover a pattern of systematic misuse:

• $14.3 million was transferred electronically from trust to general accounts. (REM)

• $10.1 million was moved by cheques. (REM)

• Around $2.63 million in cheques originally intended for trust accounts were deposited into incorrect destinations. (REM)

• iPro Inc. transferred $3.4 million from trust to general accounts, with additional internal transfers between affiliated entities. (REM)

• Payments directly benefiting the principals and their families were traced:
    • Colucci: ~$172,864 (via iPro general account) + further sums via other entities (REM)
    • Alves: ~$108,145 from iPro general accounts (REM)
    • Spouses and related parties also received funds (e.g., Alves’ spouse’s corporation) (REM)

RECO characterizes the scheme as a serious breach of fiduciary, statutory, and ethical duties, causing harm not only to individual clients and registrants but to the integrity of Ontario’s real estate system. (REM)

Impacts & Risks

For Consumers & Agents

• Clients may struggle to recover deposits or retain trust protections if funds were never properly held in trust.

• Agents tied to iPro risk missing commissions, liability claims, or reputational damage.

• Closing deals may face legal or financial obstacles if trust fund shortfalls disrupt transactional flows.

For the Founders & Associated Entities

• The freeze curtails efforts to move or hide assets, though defenses will likely raise motions challenging the orders.

• Legal defense costs could be steep; the permitted carve-outs will be closely monitored.

• Entities named in the lawsuit face potential liability for complicity, receiving improper transfers, or aiding breaches of trust.

For the Real Estate Sector & Regulators

• This case may set a precedent for aggressive regulatory action in trust fund mismanagement cases.

• Brokerages may face enhanced audits, tighter compliance standards, or stricter reporting rules.

• Public trust in multi-office brokerages could erode, affecting overall business confidence.

What Happens Next

1. Asset Tracing & Disclosure
   The Norwich orders will push banks to disclose account details, enabling RECO and its forensic team to trace diverted funds.

2. Defendants’ Motion Responses
   Colucci, Alves and their counsel will likely file motions to contest or reduce the scope of the orders, especially around permissible expenses.

3. Judicial Rulings on Liability
   Eventually, the court must adjudicate whether the defendants are liable and how much restitution or recovery is owed.

4. Potential Criminal or Regulatory Referrals
   While this matter is currently a civil/regulatory action, the severity of the allegations may invite criminal investigations or referrals to law enforcement.

Key Takeaways & Advice

• Trust funds must remain beyond reproach. Misuse, commingling, or diversion is a red line that regulators and courts will aggressively pursue.

• Brokerages must invest in tight internal controls and transparency. Segregation of trust vs operating accounts, regular audits, and clear accounting trails are nonnegotiable.

• Clients and agents should demand disclosure. Always verify how deposits are held and how a brokerage maintains trust compliance.

• Regulatory scrutiny is intensifying. Real estate professionals should anticipate new rules, audits, or compliance obligations ahead.

Renting vs. Owning: How $2,500/Month Could Cost You $190,000

Metro Vancouver Condo Inventory Could Rise 60 by Year End Report 

Introduction

In Ontario, 2025 is shaping up to be a tough year for housing. For a province that set out to build 1.5 million homes by 2031, the current pace of construction is nowhere near what’s needed. Homebuilding is falling behind across almost all metrics—housing starts are down, targets are being missed, many would-be buyers are priced out, and developer and municipal challenges are being exposed.

This post digs into the data, what’s causing the slowdown, how Ontario compares with other provinces and what policy options might help turn things around.

What the Data Tells Us: How Bad is the Shortfall?

From several sources:

• Ontario has achieved only about 26% of its 2025 housing starts target so far by August.

• Compared to 2024, housing starts in Ontario are down ~23%.

• The number of housing starts in the first half of 2025 was ~27,368 — roughly 25% lower than the same period in 2024.

• In Toronto specifically, homebuilding has dropped substantially, especially in the condominium segment, which is dragging down overall numbers.

Why Ontario is Falling Behind: Main Causes

There isn’t just one issue, but several overlapping ones:

1. High Construction & Development Costs

• Land prices, labour wages, material costs are all up.

• Development charges, municipal fees, and regulatory charges add further burden.

2. Low Investor Confidence & Falling Pre-Sales

• In the condominium/pre-construction market, declining interest from investors has delayed or canceled many projects.

3. Long Delays & Approval Bottlenecks

• Municipal planning delays, slow zoning approvals, and outdated permit processes have stalled many developments.

4. Regulatory & Policy Challenges

• Recent legislation has aimed to ease supply constraints, but there is a lag in implementation and enforcement.

5. Demand vs Supply Mismatch

• Rapid population growth and insufficient housing stock is putting pressure on affordability.

6. Interest Rates & Economic Uncertainty

• Elevated interest rates increase borrowing costs for both developers and buyers.

Provincial Government Goals vs Reality

Ontario has set ambitious housing targets:

• Build 1.5 million homes by 2031.

However:

• 2025 starts are far below what’s needed to meet the 2031 target.

• Delays in implementing policies mean that the province is falling further behind.

Comparisons: How Ontario Stacks Up to Other Provinces

• Quebec, Alberta, and Atlantic Canada are seeing growth in starts.

• Ontario is among the worst performing provinces relative to its goals.

• Rental starts in other provinces are growing faster and approval processes are more efficient.

What Happens if Things Don’t Change?

1. Worsening Affordability

• Supply constraints will keep prices elevated.

2. Housing Supply Shortage

• Continued under-building will exacerbate housing deficits.

3. Increased Costs

• Reduced builder confidence will lead to fewer projects and higher prices.

4. Social & Economic Impacts

• Increased homelessness, inequality, and pressure on municipal infrastructure.

Possible Policy & Practical Solutions

• Reduce development charges or defer them until occupancy.

• Streamline approval and permitting processes.

• Encourage purpose-built rental construction.

• Incentivize missing-middle housing.

• Utilize public land for housing.

• Offer tax incentives and rebates for affordable development.

Outlook: What to Watch in Late 2025 & Beyond

• Interest rate movement.

• Legislative implementation.

• Pre-sale market recovery.

• Municipal infrastructure upgrades.

• Federal investment effectiveness.

Conclusion

Ontario’s housing market in 2025 is at a crossroads. Ambitious targets have been set, but the tools and political will to achieve them may be lacking. With the right combination of incentives, streamlined regulation, and federal-provincial coordination, the province can change course. But until then, the supply gap will grow, affordability will worsen, and everyday Ontarians will continue to feel the pinch.

Introduction

The Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) has released its August 2025 Housing Market Charts, giving us a clear snapshot of how sales, listings, and prices evolved through the late summer. August is always a transitional month in real estate — balancing slower summer activity with early signals of the fall market. This year, the numbers reveal a market leaning toward balance, with pockets of opportunity for both buyers and sellers.

MLS Sales in August

The data shows MLS home sales in August continuing to follow seasonal trends, slightly below spring highs but consistent with past years. Comparing 2022–2025, sales volumes remain steady but not overheated, a sign that demand is still present despite affordability challenges.

• Historically, August sales soften as families focus on back-to-school and vacations.

• In 2025, sales volumes aligned closely with the levels seen in 2023 and 2024, reflecting a more stable demand curve.

New Listings on the Rise

New listings saw an uptick compared to recent Augusts. This increase has important implications:

• More choice for buyers, especially in the suburban 905 markets where detached homes dominate.

• For sellers, more competition means strategic pricing and presentation are essential.

• Historically, new listings climb in September; the August rise could foreshadow a busier-than-usual fall market.

Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio (SNLR)

The SNLR hovered in the balanced to buyer-leaning zone in August.

• A ratio under 40% usually signals a buyer’s market, 40–60% balance, and over 60% a seller’s market.

• August’s reading suggests buyers had slightly more leverage, negotiating with a growing pool of listings.

• This ratio also correlates with future price movements — as the TRREB chart shows, when SNLR drops, annual price growth often slows.

Average Price Trends

The average resale price across the GTA in August 2025 remained below the 2022 peak but consistent with the cooling and stabilizing trend since 2023.

• Prices hovered in the $1.0M range, with minor fluctuations depending on property type and location.

• Detached homes in suburban markets showed softer prices due to higher inventory.

• Condos, especially in Toronto’s 416 core, maintained stronger price resilience, supported by rental demand.

Long-Run Perspective

TRREB’s long-term charts highlight important context:

• Sales trend: The 12-month moving average shows stability since mid-2024 after the sharp adjustments of 2022–23.

• New listings trend: Rising slightly, showing confidence among sellers.

• Average price trend: Flattening out, which indicates the market is moving from correction to stabilization.

What This Means for Buyers

• More options: With listings climbing, buyers don’t face the intense bidding wars of past years.

• Negotiation power: Conditions like financing and inspection are often back on the table.

• Timing opportunity: Buyers who act before interest rates shift may secure better terms.

What This Means for Sellers

• Pricing discipline is critical — buyers are well-informed and comparing across multiple listings.

• Staging and marketing matter more than ever to stand out in a balanced market.

• Sellers who prepare well can still achieve strong results, especially in sought-after neighborhoods.

Outlook for Fall 2025

Looking ahead:

• September and October usually bring a seasonal surge in activity.

• If the Bank of Canada cuts interest rates in September as many anticipate, demand could increase.

• Expect balanced conditions to continue, with selective competition for well-priced, turnkey properties.

Conclusion

August 2025 highlighted a GTA housing market in transition:

• Sales were steady, listings increased, and prices held firm within a narrower band.

• Buyers enjoyed more leverage, while sellers faced more competition.

• The balance of power may shift again this fall depending on interest rate moves and job market performance.

For professionals and consumers alike, the August numbers stress one theme: data-driven decisions win. Whether you’re buying or selling, tracking SNLR, inventory levels, and price trends is essential in today’s evolving GTA market.

Overview

Canada’s labor market took a significant hit in August, with Statistics Canada reporting a net loss of approximately 65,500 to 66,000 jobs, pushing the unemployment rate to 7.1%—the highest level since May 2016 outside the pandemic era (Reuters, Retail Insider).

Key Stats At a Glance

Industry Breakdown

• Hardest hit sectors:

  • Professional, scientific & technical services (~−26,100 jobs)

  • Transportation & warehousing (~−22,700)

  • Manufacturing (~−19,200) (Reuters)

• Sole bright spot:

  • Construction added approximately 17,100 jobs (Reuters)

• Overall, the broader services sector, which employs around 80% of Canadians, lost a substantial 67,200 jobs (Reuters)

What’s Behind This Slump?

1. Persisting U.S. trade tensions: Ongoing tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum, and autos are undermining business confidence and hiring (Reuters).

2. Part-time work bears the brunt: A sharp drop in part-time jobs—about 60,000—drove most of the decline; full-time positions were relatively stable (Retail Insider, TD Economics).

3. Soft labor metrics: A shrinking labor force has somewhat masked how bad the situation could've been—less competition held back deeper rises in unemployment (TD Economics).

Market Reaction & Monetary Outlook

• Market shifts: Odds of a Bank of Canada rate cut in the September 17 meeting spiked to over 90% (Reuters).

• Currency & bonds: The loonie weakened against other G10 currencies (down ~0.1%) and Canadian bond yields dipped to their lowest levels since June (Reuters).

• Analyst views: Economists at TD and BMO labeled the report “very poor” and “broad‑based softness,” signaling that further policy easing is likely (Reuters, Investing.com, TD Economics).

What Comes Next?

• Bank of Canada’s policy crossroads: With labor market slack growing and inflation pressures still present, the central bank faces the classic dilemma—cut rates soon or risk deeper economic damage. All eyes are on the September 17 decision.

• Signal for business sentiment: This job report—and any potential rate cut—will likely influence investments, hiring plans, and consumer confidence heading into Q4.
