But hey, you just can't build enough speculative investment units for out of province buyers without breaking a few eggs, right?

You did read the article, right?
They are getting $2.7 for a $800,000 unit. I don't think that's overly unfair. And in fact, had they not been ridiculously greedy they would have received $3.5 million for their $800,000 unit.
These seems like more than fair compensation to me.
