Great, tell my relatives to say goodbye to their elderly parents they support. Also tell them to leave their clients behind. Oh! And hurt their school-age children socially by moving them to a different region.

Not all people have the same mobility that you do. This is a situation that many people need to stand and address, not vote with their feet.

The fact of the matter is that you/they cannot afford to keep things going, and the only way the market will correct is when people refuse to sacrifice more.

Your family loves you and based on that I can securely tell you that if you have to leave they will continue to love you. And if they truly are dependent on your support, they will follow.

Assuming you're not literally 100% broke (like $0 in the bank, $0 credit) you have the ability to travel somewhere close to make a less expensive life. Maybe Kamloops or more central like prince George?
