Immigrants. 95% (made up stat) may be poor but the 5% who are not, can afford to. In Canada, there is a recent narrative which I think is correct that immigrants are driving our inflation. We expanded our population of 30 million by about a million in the last year. That's a million new household formations, and some people bought a buttload of cash.
