Ontario is up 23%, Hamilton is up 70% this month over Oct 2007. The overall January-to-October increase in Hamilton is a more moderate 21% over 2007. The western provinces are way down in double digits. This is becoming an interesting phenomenon: resales are down, average prices are down, interest rates are down and housing starts are waaay up and taking off even more. I can't get my head around this just yet.
