      Sure they can. Just not in Ottawa.

      I will die in my rent controlled living room. Mostly because I can’t afford to move out.

          Say what you will about corporate landlords, but that part is at least unlikely. Minto will wait until something else forces me out before they renovate this unit.

          Note: Unlikely does not mean 0. But I’ve been here 10+ years so…

      There will always be someone who can afford it. It’s those fuckers propping it all up now.
