Financing, regulation and taxation are handled a little differently here in Canada, but there is an active cadre of Canadians roaming these virtual halls (some of us, Maritimers) who can field any Canada specific questions you may have.

Merchant Marine Academy and currently sail as a 3rd Assistant Engineer in the Maritime Industry. 

A little about me: I'm 29 years old and currently work in the maritime industry.

I've looked at some CMHC reports and heard buzz about Saskatchewan and Maritimes, but I can't figure out where I should go for a stable rental market.

You are practically next door - I use to cycle out your way and stop for breakfast at Blacks on a regular basis.There are opportunities in our small Cities in the Maritimes, and probably a few in those smaller centres with a stable economy ... sounds like you have found your start.

MacInnis, there's nothing that would interest Left-coast folk down here in the Maritimes.  :-)

I work in the Maritime Industry along with being a Coast Guard Reservist. 

For a man in Toronto, that's a very Maritime photo ;-)There are a few dozen active Canadians here on BP.  

@Alex BaevThough things are not quite as "stupid" here in the Maritimes, Halifax has had a lot of hot air blown into its market and things here are really too expensive as well {especially when considering NB's property tax policy on residential rental properties}.While we are always looking for REOs and other deals, our focus is renovating our properties for energy efficiency and ploughing any surplus cash-flow into paying down mortgages so, when the air rushes out of this dirigible, we are ready to go shopping.

We will still have permanent employees of industry including the new facilities,  casinos, hospitals, McNeese,  maritime,  etc...
