Officially today a petition has been launched requesting that the Finance Department of Canada revisit is recent mortgage rule changes. The petition reads and I quote as follows<\/p>\n

“KEEP COMPETITION IN THE CANADIAN MORTGAGE MARKET<\/p>\n

Keep Competition in the Canadian Mortgage Market<\/p>\n

We are asking the Department of Finance to consider the important place non-bank lenders play in the health and competitiveness of the Canadian Mortgage Market.<\/p>\n

While we endorse the DOF\u2019s intention of providing a secure housing market and stable mortgage environment for Canadians and we support the curbing of growing debt loads in our country we are asking that consideration is given to the importance of choice and value for Canadian Mortgage consumers.<\/p>\n

The recently proposed rule changes have many welcome elements including 5 \u2013 Year Fixed Rates stress tested at the BOC Qualifying Rate, elimination of bulk mortgage insurance for rental properties and the closing of tax loopholes for capital gains on properties that may not actually be owner-occupied. We endorse all these measures.<\/p>\n

We respectfully call the DOF\u2019s attention to two key elements of bulk insured mortgage programs that have served the Canadian public admirably for many years:<\/p>\n

30 Amortization for Owner Occupied Purchases with Bulk Insured Conventional Mortgages \u2013 this program has been a boon to rate competition and consumer choice in this country for decades. This portfolio\u2019s performance has been exceptional for mortgage insurers and lenders alike and has allowed a healthy alternative to the Big 6 banks that control 93% of the Canadian public\u2019s assets. While we understand the DOF\u2019s concerns over the use of sovereign debt guarantees we are sure those concerns are outweighed by the true benefit to Canadians to allow choice and rate competition. 30-year amortization is a frank necessity when purchasing homes in major Canadian cities and it is extremely important that the mortgages required to purchase Canadian homes not become the exclusive domain of 6 Canadian banks, this change would be neither wise nor healthy in the long term. Canadians deserve more than 6 choices when they shop for 30-year mortgage financing.<\/p>\n

Conventional Mortgage Refinances using Bulk Insurance \u2013 this is also a highly successful program that has provided tremendous benefits for Canadians and performed flawlessly for both Mortgage insurers and lenders for decades. While we recognize the DOF\u2019s desire to curtail relentless re-mortgaging of properties we believe that reducing the consumer\u2019s choices for mortgage refinancing to 6 banks is not in the long-term interest of Canadians. Changes to the rules governing bulk insured are welcome but the complete elimination of this program is anti-competitive in the extreme.<\/p>\n

This petition is meant to help all the mortgage consumers in this country and also allow thousands of hard-working individuals working at non-bank lenders to retain their jobs. The simple truth of the DOF\u2019s present proposal means that non-bank lender volume of business would reduce by 65% causing massive harm to a vibrant, safe and valuable mortgage origination industry.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I urge all Canadians to take a moment and sign the petition to show the liberal government of your disapproval of the new mortgage rules. With your voice, we can help change things before we have a crisis like the United Staes had.<\/p>\n
