Let's not forget that condo fees will most likely also go up, gas prices, food, etc

200k for a condo...I remember 10 years ago when you can buy a freaking house for 150k.

Times are hard man...
This is why I pay off an extra couple grand+ a year on my mortgage so that if the rates do skyrocket, I will have a huge chunk of it paid off.

At least these condo owners will have front row seats for any Habs related riots!
