Everyone wants a prenup. Very few people get one
More than half of young Canadians say they’d want a prenup if they got married or entered a common-law relationship. But only a small share have actually signed one. So what’s stopping them? In this episode, we look at the gap between interest and action and why prenups may still be harder, pricer and more emotionally charged than many expect. We hear from a Toronto woman who says getting a prenup with her husband became the most difficult part of wedding planning. Then, Aimee Schalles, lawyer and co-founder of Jointly.ca, breaks down what happens if you don’t have a prenup, why more young Canadians want them, and why so few actually sign.

Your “starter home” might be your forever home
For decades, there was a formula for homeownership. Buy something small, maybe a condo or a townhouse, watch its value rise, and then eventually move up to something bigger. But that formula is breaking down for many young Canadians. Today, we’re looking at what happens when an idea passed down through generations stops working when it's your turn. First, we hear from a Toronto homeowner who stretched far beyond her budget to skip the starter home altogether and buy a place she hopes to stay in long-term. Then, we meet a millennial who’s decided to rent and wait rather than make the jump into homeownership. And later, Rob speaks with Mike Moffatt, founding director of the Missing Middle Initiative, who explains why many young buyers are either stuck in small condos or skipping the first rung entirely and what today’s market means for people hoping to move up.
