Canada's economy, especially in the province of Ontario, has been one of the best performers among industrialised countries over the last few years. Canadian economic growth in 2017 was the fastest among G7 countries and is projected to be second fastest (to the USA) in 2018. Real estate is the largest sector, representing 13% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) – 20% including construction. The province of Ontario (where Toronto is located) is Canada's primary economic engine, contributing 39% of GDP. While consumer spending, according to the OECD, leads the growth, business investment is also surging. All this makes the country an attractive venue for real estate investment and development.
