Guest: Heather Scoffield, economics columnist

With the Bank of Canada raising interest rates, property values continue to fall and many worry that it will trigger a recession. Heather Scoffield, The Star's economics columnist and Ottawa bureau chief, explains the latest numbers and why more creative solutions are needed.
