Something's gotta give... one would think. We need inspectors with actual teeth enforcing absentee ownership, illegal airB&B stuff etc. in Canada. And real affordable high-density housing, not chi-chi upper-end condo complexes that only the rich can afford (and NO corporate purchasing in bulk of entire neighbourhoods, which I hear is a big thing in the US recently).
