I am currently investing in Alberta, focused on Calgary and Edmonton as well as smaller towns in the province.

that sucks, is it different in other provinces?

I have two doors locally and two doors in a neighboring province (Saskatchewan). 

Bill Gulley By "soft" I was meaning the restriction being a policy or limit in practice, but not explicitly articled in the regulations.Up here each province has its own securities regulator and while there is generally harmonization between them, there is not an actual federal equivalent to SEC.  

Honestly, all things considered, I believe there are better provinces to invest in.

@Dan Crosby there are Canadian provinces that are landlord friendly and do not have rent control; Ontario is not one of them.

I'm mostly familiar with duplexes in Victoria BC Canada where the numbers are more like $300K and $1500 which is why after 20 years I'm selling and wondering whether my only option is to invest in another province or even country to get back to the great numbers I had years ago.

I do know that the laws are very different between US and Canada and even within provinces in Canada.

In many provinces the most recent sales prices of any property, along with the property tax assessment, are available on-line.

Thank you for sharing @Thomas Lorini Just wondering where do you invest in Canada, I mean which City/Province ?
