Well, I saw these advertisements with my own eyes; but please keep in mind that it was a) 5 years ago and b) in North-East where the housing is generally cheaper than in South. As to leaving for Canada, here you won't be able to buy anything decent for under 200 K CAD (it will be either a very small 2-bedroom condo apartment or condo townhouse, or a detached house in the middle of nowhere and you'll have to spend 2-3 hours a day commuting). At least these are Toronto prices; in other Canadian cities the housing is cheaper but the job market is much worse... same as everywhere else, I guess.
