Two sisters were shocked when a Toronto landlord raised their rent by $7,000 per month.

The landlord had told them he wanted to raise the rent to $3,500 and when they complained he decided to raise it to $9,500.

“We know that our building is not rent controlled and this was something we were always worried about happening and there is no way we can afford $9,500 per month," Yumna Farooq said.

Landlords(scalpers)

So you are saying they are some secret club, and without joining it you can’t buy a house for the same price a landlord does?

You’re aggressively missing the point. It’s it a mental health issue, or are you being deliberately obtuse?

You’re the only one being aggressive in this thread ; I’m being deliberately insensitive to worthless arguments and emotions from worthless people. OK, now you are not the only one anymore, maybe.

You are the one responsible for carrying through your own point. Your failure to do that is not my problem.
