This is a community to discuss the housing crisis in Canada.
All so Canadians can find a decent home to live in.
Racism is still absolutely prohibited, but you are welcome to debate population growth, immigration rate, foreign home buyers, and the merits of single family homes or the green zone.
A merge of r/canadahousing and r/canadahousing2 for those coming from Reddit.
Bits of the sidebar and logo taken from those subs and will be going through a slight revision as things get settled.

Not a good option, especially for a rental. They bubble up when it gets wet. It's better to install vinyl plank so it doesn't get destroyed in a year.
why would a floor get wet?
Why was this downvoted? I'm genuinely asking. If you manage to damage your rental apartment's floor with moisture here you're basically criminally negligent and fucked financially.
You've never come in to a house with wet shoes or clothes? Or spilled a drink? There's a ton of ways for the floor to get wet that isn't "criminally negligent or fucked".
You leave wet shoes in the vestibule and dry the spilled drink with a towel or something. Even student houses use wooden laminate these days here, because no one is paying decent rent for an apartment with crack den floors.
