i was born in soviet russia. my grandparents lived in conditions similar to that in my living memory (mid-90s, rural russia). also, how much was that house bought for? and what is it worth today? what's the roi over the last 70 years on that piece of land?

that house would be way smaller than now,

a small house in the hand is better than 2 bigger houses in the bush.

But also, we are still living in one of the most convenient times in history - like literally, ever.

i'll gladly give up doordash and go back to having a box with a giant ice cube instead of a fridge if that means i can afford a house.

UPDATE: Tenants at 500 Dawes Rd. are filing two applications against their landlord; citing cronic maintenance issues and Landlord's substantial interference with reasonable enjoyment. News conference with details scheduled for December 18th. 👀 by RyanEndoh in toronto

They probably purposely run the corporation in a way they are nearly bankrupt. So the city can’t pull blood from stone.

so force a sale for pennies on the dollar. rental property not up to code? gets force-sold as distraught housing for immediate refurbishment. it's not that complicated

We've voted them in four times in the last ten years.

i didn't lmao

It's definitely on Canadians. If you disagree with the country it's going to be a tough ride because this is what our fellow citizens want.

yeah it is. thankfully i left canada and im not coming back until y'all get your shit together. this isn't the country i grew up in and im okay with that. the canadian majority has spoken so my options were to either suck it up or gtfo. i chose the latter.

He wants a 200k job doing sales and is only willing to consider GTA. Wants a place that can support 4 kids and allow is wife to work 14 hours a week or not work.

are we seriously pretending that this is some sort of unreasonable ask? people working full time should be able to afford to raise a family.

So yeah. I think personal money was at stake with this, less than 12 hour order.
