ATTENTION: Canadians living in detached homes of 1,800+sq ft., three or four bedroom, 2.5 baths, finished basements, attached or unattached two-car garages: Sell soon.  

The stats on oldsters and youngsters is a real tip-off about the future housing market.  So is this bit: "fewer Canadians living in single detached homes, the result of declining affordability and older people moving into smaller living spaces."  

For those in their late 50s-early 60s, (today's "pig in the python") it means a glut on the market sometime in the next 4-10 years, when most of them want to move "into smaller living spaces."

You heard it here first.
