Incredibly stupid, but I'd expect nothing less from a big bank that's complicit in the country's economic woes. There's no shortage of people who know how to build homes.

There's a shortage of people who will do it for starvation wages though. And that's what the big banks really don't want.

Alberta had over 200k immigrants last year. There's a huge shortage, not just a shortage of good pay.

And that's mostly because other areas cost to much, it's all just a part of the same problem.

Alberta goes through booms and busts, once population hits a point wages will go down and housing prices will go up
