Racism, now classism, generational divide, with a sprinkling of racism in there.
I'm bummed. I never want to be a landlord again, but I do want to have a detached home with a suite, as I never want my grandparents to be in a home. They are still independent, but won't be forever. That ship sailed, and it's shitty. The brain drain will happen here in Vancouver. Many of the best chefs I knew in the city when I moved here left. I have doctor friends who left, etc.
I stand by the issue currently being that there are too many homes owned by too few people that live here these days. One of my Mom's ex-employees family has 11 houses here. I'm taking immediate family. 4 people. None of them were lived in (although this was before the vacant home tax implemented a couple years ago, so that may have changed) and quite frankly, thats fucking absurd.
