Canada's Housing Market Just Showed Its Strongest Sign of Life in 2026

  July 6, 2026 May sales jumped 5.5% nationally, listings tightened, and prices broke back above $700,000 — here's what it actually means if you're buying or selling in Ontario.

What actually happened in May National home sales climbed 5.5% month-over-month in May, the strongest single-month gain of 2026 so far. New listings pulled back slightly, down 1%, and that combination tightened the national sales-to-new-listings ratio to 49.2%, up from 46.2% in April.

Elon Musk's Mission at DOGE: White House Confirms Extended Role

The White House has confirmed that Elon Musk will remain in his role as a special government employee until he completes his ambitious mission with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Tasked by President Donald Trump, Musk's objective is to slash government spending and streamline the federal workforce.

Despite recent media speculation about his potential departure, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt clarified that Musk's tenure would continue until his work at DOGE is finished. Musk has already made significant strides, with DOGE reporting an estimated $140 billion in taxpayer savings through workforce reductions, asset sales, and contract cancellations. However, this figure is still far from Musk's ultimate goal of cutting $1 trillion in federal spending.

Musk's efforts have not been without controversy. His approach to mass layoffs and government restructuring has sparked protests, lawsuits, and public backlash. Nevertheless, the billionaire remains confident in achieving his objectives, stating in a recent interview that he expects to accomplish most of his goals within his 130-day mandate.

As Musk's work progresses, the nation watches closely, with both supporters and critics weighing in on the impact of his reforms. Whether he will extend his role beyond the current mandate remains to be seen, but for now, Musk is firmly committed to completing his mission at DOGE.
