If they will actually do something on money laundering, and rampant non-reporting of income, great.  They don't need to target any one ethnic group or nationality, but don't avoid anyone either - just enforce the laws as written now (or hopefully improved) on everyone.  It might indeed cause short-term housing pain, but in the longer term that would be very good for the country.  While we are at it, however, how about we get a LOT more serious about stopping/catching/penalizing financial fraud artists??  Sadly Canada is a "world leader in innovation," as Junior might say, in the area of financial crime.  Hooray!!  Ponzi schemes, pyramids, related party deals, many sorts of fake investments, we have it all.....   The chances of such fraud:  (1) being  noticed; (2) being prosecuted; (3) resulting in a conviction; with (4) fines actually collected, or better yet (4) real jail time...  are very small indeed.  Steal $10,000,000, the penalty is "not an officer or director."!  A joke!!!
