I know a lot of people blame them, including the press, for contributing to the housing crisis. That's probably part of it.

Especially when it was the feds and provinces who caused the foreign investment problem in the first place, ie: nobody wanted to stop the money flowing into Canada (starting in the early 90's) even tho it was being done to launder funds through BC casinos and property purchases.
