Not to mention, new buildings are excluded from rent control in Ontario.
Fuck that, in every sense. Why should the people already struggling for housing have to worry about landlords suddenly deciding to jack up rent by thousands, just so investors can have an easier go with AirBnB? That kind of expectation worsens a community, and absolutely contributes to the homelessness situation.
Nothing will make me support things like AirBnB at this point. People having homes should be more important.
