Real estate trusts are sending rents soaring and reshaping Canada’s cities

All landlords are rich people that hoard land and then, if they’re inefficient, hold it hostage in exchange for many times its worth.

I have family who own property with additional housing on it that they rent well below cost to students attending the local University.

Your argument of “all landlords” now fails with one example which is why I said “You should work on the binary thinking pattern displayed here”.

It is literally the explicit purpose. And yes, some landlords own inns, that they rent to inn keepers and proprietors that then sublet. They do not run the inns if theyre landlords.

No, it literally isn’t.

No, by definition an “Innkeeper” is a “landlord” as they own/maintain/rent the Inn in question. You are confusing an Innkeeper with a Groundskeeper, or “employee”, when they are not the same.

You’re right, but you’re not going to change their mind. The power of propaganda!

How is it always the landlords that end up defending their disgusting practices.

How is it always the landlords that end up defending their disgusting practices.

There is a difference between defending disgusting practices, and correcting the record.

Your claim is “all land lords bad”.

Many are, and it sucks. But many aren’t, and that is why you are wrong.

Take care.
