Opposition is growing over Quebec's new flood maps, with the province's professional association of real estate brokers warning they could disrupt the housing market and directly impact homeowners.
Are trade organizations required to say the most obvious and dumb shit imaginable for a situation? Like, is there a watch group that sees realtors blaming unsellable homes in a flood region and makes sure that no one blames the obvious changing climate while they also bemoan having to do something about it?
“Oh no, I can’t sell this very clearly marked death trap. Why won’t you just let me sell this nightmare hamlet and let me do my job!?”
I agree but also from their perspective I’m sure they don’t expect the government to help them financially to get a new house. Idk what the Canadian government is like but I’m sure it is insufficient like most others.
It’s pretty devastating to be told your home is dangerous and you have to uproot and move your whole life or lose your insurance and that no one will buy it. I’m not really sure what I would do in this situation but hiding the map isn’t going to make the problem go away.
