​In March 2021 average single family detached prices broke above the top of the channel that has defined prices in the last 7 years of sideways chop.

​Meanwhile strata market prices remained on their downtrends with condos trading at 1Q 2006 levels when the TSX Energy Index was trading 2.5 times higher.

Total residential sales zoomed up and away from its long term downtrend as the ratio of listings to sales came in at 1.9.

The employed in Alberta enjoy the highest average employment earnings on the latest January 2021 data (2 month lag) at $64,410/yr which includes the government shutdown subsidies and are 9% above Canada's national average. But in Canada, only 20% of households have a net worth greater than $1,000,000 (see my post "Household Net Worth" of June 2020).

​Foreign Direct Investment in Canada has been negative for over two decades and the data plot spread has been widening since 2015. That's a trend. Housing is a commodity as is heavy Alberta crude. Follow the money, see the TSX chart and my notes on the commodities super cycle in my post Japan Redux and my December 6, 2020 post Peak Oil Says BP.
