> from the unsustainable 30-per-cent-plus pace

What 30% pace? Real growth has been 1.6% per annum. Now I'm absolutely certain you are confusing Toronto with the rest of Canada. The vast majority of Canadians don't live in Toronto. It is not representative of anything related to Canada as a whole.

> How the country is growing 2% overall when the most populous region by far grew at 30% last year

You're going to have to ask CREA, the official source for home prices in Canada. That is what they have reported. I can only go by what they have given.

If we can believe Zolo, who isn't exactly official but provides more comprehensive data: Toronto has declined by almost 8% in the last quarter and is barely up at all over the past year. Are you sure about this 30% YoY? Perhaps you're looking at the wrong period?
