Exploration of Canada’s economic landscape with Ben Rabidoux, one of the country’s most respected housing and macro analysts
About this Event

Check out Ben's recent interview with Dave Chilton (The Wealthy Barber)


"He's very smart, he's opinionated, he's not afraid to go against consensus but he's been RIGHT a tremendous amount with his forcasts" - Dave Chilton


Join us for an in-depth, myth-free exploration of Canada’s economic landscape with Ben Rabidoux, one of the country’s most respected housing and macro analysts. Known for his data-driven, BS-free approach, Ben will break down the forces shaping Canada’s housing market, interest rates, consumer health, and broader economic risks and opportunities heading into 2026.


With housing affordability at crisis levels, immigration policy shifting, and regional markets—from Victoria to Nanaimo to Vancouver—diverging in surprising ways, this session will give entrepreneurs the clarity they need to make informed decisions about real estate, hiring, capital allocation, and long-term planning.



What You’ll Learn
  • The true state of Canada’s housing market beyond headlines
  • Supply, demand, and demographic trends shaping BC’s future
  • Interest rate paths, inflation pressures, and recession risks
  • How household debt and spending will impact entrepreneurs
  • What to expect for commercial real estate, rents, and construction
  • Clear takeaways for business owners making strategic decisions in 2025–2027



Why Attend

If your business touches real estate, hiring, capital investment, or consumer behaviour (so… basically all of us), Ben’s insights will help you navigate uncertainty with confidence. Expect straight talk, robust data, and a lively Q&A tailored to the entrepreneurial mindset.
