Show Notes

Alberta's housing market is booming, with record population growth fueling demand—but business confidence tells a more cautious story. Alberta Edge host Ryan Hastman speaks with economist Alicia Planincic and builder Rohit Gupta about what's driving the housing surge, why businesses remain uncertain, and what it will take for the rest of Canada to truly feel the benefits of Western growth.
