    • There Is No Housing Crisis | The Walrus

    Jump

  • It's a bit of a clickbait title. I shared this here a few days ago and cherry-picked this paragraph for the summary, which I think gets to the point:

    A housing system that serves all but one group is not in a state of crisis; it is one based on structural inequality and economic exploitation.

    'Perfect storm' causing constant delays at Air Canada, despite windfall profits: CEO

    A "perfect storm" of problems lies behind Air Canada's wave of flight delays over the summer, its CEO said, even as the country's largest airline roars back to profitability -- with no sign of slowing down.

    Despite more staff and revamped technology, Air Canada's operations in June and July failed to meet "expected levels," Michael Rousseau told analysts on a conference call Friday.

    Canadian spending growth cools in July

    • Canadian spending showed signs of slowing in July. While retail sales excluding autos continued to rise, the pace was slower than in June.
    • Spending on discretionary services slipped a bit in July. The early summer travel boom is losing momentum with both real and nominal spending slightly below March peak levels.
    • Though restaurant spending has increased, this largely reflects higher prices rather than additional restaurant visits.
    • Spending remains firm, but early signs of softening are consistent with a drift higher in the unemployment rate. As we progress into the second half of the year, real consumption is expected to retreat as household debt servicing ratios climb to record highs.
