    People want to rent because they don't want to be tied down? What percentage of people is she referring to here? I certainly don't want to rent.
    It's by far one of the biggest wastes of money ever. I'd rather buy a house and pay a mortgage.
    Renting sucks. It always has and it always will.

    The government need to introduce rent control, stop foreign buyers, and pause immigration, otherwise Canadians will continue to suffer

      Immigrants is good especially in a aging population like canada. In 10-20 yrs from now lots of people will retire. Thus less people are working. If not for immigrants. Who pays for the seniors pension benefits? ...Workers that pay taxes.
      I do agree with foreign buyers though. I feel like they should make a law for the first time buyer so that people buying their first home could afford.

      @@lalagirl211 wrong. The biggest issues everyone faces is the cost of living. Immigrants will only make that far worse because the rate of immigration far exceeds housing being built. Also we need a break, Canada has taken in consistently the most immigrants than any developed country over the decades aside from American who has 10x the population.
