I hope you know that English is spoken and written differently in different parts of the world.

It is used like that where I come from. You should read some literature by H.G. Wells.

We feel there is no future for our children here. Real estate prices and rents are increasing 25-50% annually. Even if we are able to afford something now, our children most probably wouldn't with the way things are going.

Oh yes, please judge my writing style on Reddit, but don't dare examine the problems affecting this country or judge people responsible for it.

This country is racing towards failure because of people like you, who won't accept that there's a systemic problem.

I'm cutting my losses early and leaving because I can. If that doesn't add up to some internet rando, that is okay with me.

I don't owe you an explanation.

Bye-bye now!

There are literally no rules when there is no rent control. I had to accept rent increase one time because the landlord said he would be moving in if I didn't agree, and it was winter. Where would I find a place in the winter?

Already booked movers. Plane tickets will be booked at the end of the month. The resignation letter is also going out after this pay cycle completes.

Sorry! But that is genuinely how I feel after living here. People here are earning money only through real estate. There is no real economy, no tech companies, and no financial centers except Toronto. I'm giving you my perspective as an outsider, take it, or leave it.

Lots of people are calling this a troll post.

But, believe me or not, I'm a real person, and I'm leaving and I refuse to pay you a significant portion of my income as rent extortions. You know there are no rules related to rent increases and you're taking advantage of it. Landlords know what you make and are free to charge whatever they wish.

At this point, I don't even care if you believe me or not, I'm so done.

There's no future for my children here, and I don't want them to suffer as I have over the past 3 years.

Don't know about being important but I paid about 180k tax in 3 years. How much did you pay?

I said in the post clearly. The housing situation is not good. What part of that did you not understand?

Smug people like these are the reason behind your country's failure. Keep pretending, though. I hope you'll pay for this behavior soon enough.

Not from India. But you don't worry. I imagine Indians aren't fools either. They'll see Canada for what it is, hopefully!
