TORONTO'S hot housing market is driving residents to seek more affordable options outside Canada's largest city, pushing demand for new properties to new highs in these outlying towns.
Residential permits in Hamilton, a city of about 500,000 people an hour's drive from Toronto, more than doubled to a record C$204 million (S$211 million) in September, according to Statistics Canada.
