This page started as Ask Jason.
Questions from real people. Honest answers. Confidence earned the hard way.
Audit Jason is what comes after that.
It’s us going back through the old episodes — not to dunk on them, not to rewrite history — but to audit what we said, what we believed, and what actually turned out to be true.
Same curiosity.
More experience.
Fewer illusions.
Some ideas aged well.
Some didn’t.
That’s the point.
If you’re new here, you can start anywhere.
If you’ve been here from the beginning, you’ll see the through-line.
The full episodes live on YouTube now.
This page is where it all began — and where the context lives.

🔍 Audit Jason is back, and this time past-me picked a fight with zoning laws, rent prices, and my own ego. Spoiler: Present-me had some thoughts.

👉 New builds that cash flow? Not anymore.
👉 Zoning changes expiring? Nope, that’s not a thing.
👉 Rent pricing? If nobody negotiates, you’re too cheap.

We take the wins we are given because they give us the energy we need to battle for the ones we have to win.

*Pic for attention*
And for context. With another kid coming, I (Jason Piercey The Ask Jason Show) am thinking about these things.

$10/Day Child Care: Where We’re At, and What Just Changed

Child care is infrastructure, not babysitting. We’ve made big strides, but we’re still climbing the hill. Albeit, there have been wins.

$10/day child care is real. More than 11,200 spaces are already open across the province. Families are saving hundreds every month. That's legit, and it has magnitude.
More spaces on the way too. About 1,600+ new spots are in development. Some will open soon; others are still on paper.
Waitlists are still here, but easier to navigate. The new Early Learning Gateway gives parents a single place to search, apply, and track. Instead of relying on rumours and poor googling efforts.

However, those waitlists are still long. And a “space in development” doesn’t help if you need care tomorrow.
Educators are stretched way too thin. We need about 1,000 more Early Childhood Educators by 2026, but many are leaving the field because wages and benefits don’t match the importance of their work. Plus, not every NL family benefits equally. Most projects are landing in St. John’s or Central. So, if you’re around the bay, it can feel like you’re waiting forever.

There was good news today though!

25 new projects in Avalon & Central, bringing 574 more spaces.
A new Pre-K at St. Matthew’s in St. John’s with 20 $10/day spots.
A new award for excellence in Early Childhood Education to recognize the people holding this system together.
And Federal funding got locked in until 2031, which means stability for families and providers.

Obviously this doesn’t fix everything. Waitlists will still test your patience. ECEs still need better pay and support. And families around the bay still deserve more options.
But 574 new spots means 574 families will finally get that phone call. And an award might just be an award, but it means educators get recognition they’ve earned a hundred times over. And long-term funding means the foundation is here to build on.

It’s not the finish line. But it’s forward momentum. And that’s something worth talking about. So go us!

🔥 Newfoundland & Labrador’s real estate market just broke another record — six months of price growth, record sales, and buyers lining up.

But why is this happening? And more importantly… what does it mean for YOU if you’re buying, selling, or investing?

We broke it all down — numbers, trends, and what’s coming next — in our latest blog post.

If you’ve been anywhere near a “For Sale” sign in Newfoundland and Labrador lately, you already know something big is happening. Our housing market isn’t just “strong.” It’s breaking records like a rookie who suddenly discovered steroids. Six months straight of climbing prices, bidding...

Real Estate Roast... with Heart
Welcome to The Ask Jason Show’s first Audit Episode—where we lovingly roast decade old real estate advice, ourselves, and anyone who still thinks flash = results.

🎬 Mark and I kick off this series with a total lack of polish, a decent amount of banter, and enough strategy snuck in to make it worth your time.

It’s awkward. It’s underproduced. It’s so us.

Come for the laughs. Stay for the marketing advice.

▶️ Episode 1 is live. Go judge us. (Just don’t skip the part where we actually make sense.)

🚨 FINAL EPISODE ALERT 🚨

The Ask Jason Show is ending… but it’s not goodbye. It’s hello, self-audit.

Coming soon: The Audit Jason Show. We’re going back — waaaay back — to audit every cringey, cocky, overconfident moment from the archives. And once a month? My team is live-streaming a full-on roast session. Accountability, anyone?

Watch the last-ever Ask Jason episode now, and stick around as we tear this whole thing down to rebuild something even better.

Our mentor and team leader had this to say about his good friend, and long time coach, Nevin Hollett . Oh, Jason ... Luckily there's only one of you 🤦‍♂️😂

"How's about starting the first business day of the year with a massive throwback to a much younger, much thinner, much less hairy version of myself. And, of course, the always charming, top notch blouse wearing, goatee toting . He recruited me into this business, and onto his team, approximately a million years ago (when this pic was taken). I've learned a great deal from him. Especially what not to do with my facial hair. Love you, friend/partner/mentor."
