Global real estate prices slowed in the second quarter of 2010, but Canada had the most “dramatic” cooling off of all countries, says a report by the Bank of Nova Scotia.

Australia and Canada led the pack in housing price appreciation at the beginning of the year, followed by Sweden and the U.K. The U.S., Japan and Spain all saw declines.
