Canadian home sales and prices are falling, but buyers still face difficult mortgage decisions. Rick and Dianne, the AI hosts of Canada Morning Business Brief, explain September's housing market slowdown, uneven housing starts and why lower prices do not automatically mean affordable payments. They examine Hitachi Energy's planned $479-million transformer-insulation factory in Ontario and Canadian steelmakers' search for domestic customers. Internationally, oil prices approach US$110 as Washington waives new Russia-related penalties and Europe maintains pressure on Russian energy revenues. Rising U.S. import prices, a modest manufacturing recovery and falling technology stocks add to the uncertainty over inflation and investment. Listen for the connections between Canadian housing, mortgage costs, industrial development and energy security ahead of the Bank of Canada's October 28 decision. Reporting cutoff is 5.32 a.m. Eastern on October 17, 2026.
