36 per cent of Canadians who own a winter recreational property or who are considering purchasing one cite they are more inclined to buy a property in Canada than in the U.S. because of the economic uncertainty plaguing our southern neighbours, says the 2008 Royal LePage Winter Recreational Property Report.
The report says Canmore's ideal location on the eastern slopes of the Rockies surrounded by the mountains and a multitude of recreational activities "continue to make the area a coveted recreational destination."
