I am being sent the Greater Vancouver list/sales on a daily basis.
Paul B has been providing this information for free and reliably, for a long time on Vancouver Condo Info. I don't want to overlap his work or steal his thunder.
However if I see that his numbers are missing, I will put up what I am sent.
Remember the numbers will be different from his as they have different parameters. My numbers are for the whole GV and all categories of product.
Also there will be no overall inventory numbers for now.

Fed currently is reviewing BC fast-track visa program after suspicious surge in applications. Other suspects come from newcomers who declare low-incomes or no-incomes and claim our welfare benefits. They then sell off a business or one of their properties in source country. To transfer these funds to Canada, they use their parents or siblings. All they need is to complete a "gift letter", similar to examples below.

flash back August 2012
ReplyDelete"Mark Carney denied wanting a job in England"
Here’s Carney this past August, after the Bank of England’s Governor, Mervyn King, announced he was stepping down in June 2013. The BBC’s Zeinab Badawi asked Carney if he wanted the job. Here’s the key part of his answer, which comes at about the 20-minute mark:
Carney: “It’s an extremely important post. I’m very focused on my post at the Bank of Canada and the Financial Stability Board. And I look forward to working with the new, or next, governor of the Bank of England. But until the end of June of next year, I’ll very much enjoy working with [inaudible].”
Badawi: So is that a ‘no’ or a ‘never’?
Carney: It’s both.
Importantly, he didn’t say he never wanted the job—only that he didn’t want it before the end of next June, which is exactly what’s played out. He’ll start his job at the Bank of England on July 1, 2013.
In an interview with CTV’s Lisa Laflamme, also last August, Carney said he hadn’t been approached to run the Bank of England and was “focused on [his] role” at the Bank of Canada and the Financial Stability Board. No real denials there.
Carney played his cards close to his chest and, apparently, got one past the press until almost the moment before he announced his new job.
******** end quote
He didn't fool the Canadians one bit.
However, he does demonstrate the half-truth half-untruth tactics when dealing with taxpayers that fund his high paying career.
Market dropped 60 points eh?

The decision to appoint Carney, a Canadian central banker, to the seat of financial power in the UK really goes to show how connected the whole world of central banking is. Such people do not recognise the significance national sovereignty, nor do they understand the close bonds that connect regional political economies. They simply care about power, influence, and personal profit.
Carney's proximity to the instruments of the UK financial sector will most certainly have a future cost. No doubt he will be sharing the intelligence he comes across with his fellow Canadian colleagues and with the dear Yanks of the US Treasury Department. And such intelligence will likely effect the balance sheet of the UK economy. It seems very likely indeed that the US, upset by King's inflammatory comments from the BoE - he often asked why the general public were not more upset by the 2008 crisis - have plotted with the current government to replace him.
It seems pretty obvious that we are now governed by people far beyond the normal levers of democratic accountability. Let us be frank: we are living in a fascist global community of financial criminals, and the political class is nowhere to be seen.

Draghi(ex Goldman Sachs) head of the BCE. Carney(ex Goldman Sachs) governor of the Bank of England. Mario Monti(ex Goldman Sachs) Prime Minister of Italy. Luis de Guindos(ex Lehman Bros) Finance Minister of Spain.Nothing even slightly suspicious here,right? Then there are R.Rubin, H.Paulson, P.Sutherland, O. Issing, A.Borges to name but a few more ex Goldman Sachs ,who have all done so much to help their fellow men.

Anything to do with Goldman Sachs REEKS, and Monti was an imposition by the UE on Italy. I suggest you read "The Bank: How Goldman Sachs Rules the World)¡" (2010) by Marc Roche of Le Monde.

You only needed to read the economist to have a 'sneaky feeling' Carney would get the job

Canada has become a far harsher society which saw huge social unrest last summer. I certainly don't think another Goldman Sachs place man is really what the world needs right now and the fact he was this governments choice should set alarm bells ringing. Very much like the appointment of MacGregor to Steel and Coal in the 1980's it was a hatch man put in place to smash up an industry and with this guy the public sector.

ReplyDelete26 November 2012 7:34 PM
So let me get this straight. The Economist (sole journalists in the Bilderberg meeting) muted a Central banker who also attended the same Bilderberg meeting, who has appointed by a Chancellor who has been a past Bilderberg attendee whose decision was applauded by a shadow Chancellor who has also attended Bilderberg. I see a pattern here, but hey, I'm just a pleb.

As it doesn't appear as if the BoE is an independent body any longer, it probably doesn't matter who got the job. They just go along with what the government want to do. Independent body my arse.

ReplyDelete26 November 2012 5:06 PM
It is more than likely that the Yanks pressured Osborne to appoint this chap - after all if you work for Goldman you effectively work for the US Treasury. They are evidently very keen to get their grubby little hands on the remaining financial assets that the UK has.
As has been said below, Goldman's domination of Europe is now complete. The squid is now firmly positioned on the face of BoE and, by extension, connected to the lives of all UK citizens.
