I really hadn't thought about that. Good point.

Remember that the local housing market is very dependent on the local labour market. I hear houses in Labour Shortage areas (Fort Mac, Leduc in Alberta) are absolutely insane (rumours of 250k for a 5th wheel trailer, holy shit)!

When a mill/factory/big business pulls out of a community, that will fucking kill the realty market in a community.

Hmmmm. How to "short" the housing market. You have officially stumped me. Good job.
