A one year rental lease is only a piece of paper tenants can break at any time. Sorry here is two months notice i am moving.
The excuses can be a loss of job. A family illness, whatever it doesnt matter. The tenant can move along. The landlord can try to chase the tenant and take them to court but that is a long tiresome process and in most cases you cant get blood from a stone.
If the government wants more rental units built they have to make it more attractive to the landlords to put more on market.
$100-$200 a night is the issue today from one night rentals
If you want to kick them out go ahead won't bother me one bit - you won't see this law changed by any government its here to stay

Today they implement new rent control laws.
If you own a rental unit and try to evict the tenant so a family member can move you have to pay that tenant a month of rent as a penalty. WTF?
So my daughter wants to live in the condo i rent out i have to pay the tenant a month of rent?
What is Wynne trying to prove? How she can completely decimate the economy of Ontario before the next election?
i know she is pandering for votes of renters but she is now going to decimate the building trades. Why build units if no one will buy for rentals?
That will suck
but this is being done mainly because of Airbnb and other renting media- people are getting kicked out because the owner says he needs it, then next month Airbnb ad is up.
While the population grew 9.6 per cent from 1996 to 2011, there has been little increase in the supply of rental housing.
Personally if I signed a year rental deal it would be honoured - there would be no need to evict anyone
The eviction itself will cost you money

So yesterday an article in Sun read Ontario lagging in job growth.
BRINGING UP THE REAR
Province lagging behind in job creation
- Toronto Sun
- August 31, 2017
- ANTONELLA ARTUSO
Ontario — the so-called economic engine of Canada — is near the “back of the pack” when it comes to job creation and employment in North America, a new labour market report produced by the Fraser Institute has found.
When Fraser researchers looked at five key indicators, including unemployment, the province ranked 44th out of 60 Canadian and American jurisdictions in terms of labour market performance between 2014-16.
Charles Lammam, co-author of Measuring Labour Markets in Canada and the United States, said a high-performing labour market means rapid job growth, low unemployment and high productivity.
“But that has not been the experience of Ontario workers over the past three years,” he said. “Instead, abysmal labour market performance has hurt workers in the province.”
In what he called the saddest and gloomiest statistic, Ontario has the highest rate of long-term unemployment in Canada, with one in five unemployed workers out of a job for 27 weeks or more.
Other provinces generally didn’t fare well, either — only Saskatchewan and B.C. were able to crack the top 20 and most were in the bottom 30.
Newfoundland and Labrador tied for last with West Virginia.
Fraser Institute based its Index of Labour Market Performance on indicators like average total employment growth, worker productivity and the unemployment rate.
Ontario scored particularly poorly in worker productivity and was nowhere near the top performer on any of the indicators, according to the report.
“In many ways, if we don’t have a strong Ontario, we can’t have a strong Canada,” Lammam said. “It’s really important for Ontario to get things right, particularly when it comes to public policy.”
Michigan, which has a manufacturing base which is similar to Ontario’s but a very different approach to labour laws, scored 25th.
Lammam said that ranking suggests that government policy has a great deal to do with how well a province does at putting people to work.
“High tax rates, rapid debt accumulation, soaring electricity costs — especially in Ontario — higher minimum wages, more stringent labour and environmental regulations: All these things weaken the labour market and ultimately the prosperity of workers,” he said.
The Ontario government says it has a number of programs in place to provide grants and loans to companies that produce jobs in the province.
According to an Economic Development Ministry statement last fall, its business support programs have helped create and retain 68,501 jobs since 2013.
“Direct business support can often be the deciding factor in securing private-sector investment in Ontario. We work diligently to ensure government resources are being spent judiciously, effectively, and in a way that will spur continued growth,” Ontario Economic Development and Growth Minister Brad Duguid said in a statement.
I find this stat strange
In what he called the saddest and gloomiest statistic, Ontario has the highest rate of long-term unemployment in Canada, with one in five unemployed workers out of a job for 27 weeks or more.
We all know they like to pick on ONtario (well until conservatives are in, then it will be good reports) I would like to know who these workers are and what they do/did
It stands to figure a large Province will have the most unemployed - that will never change for any long period of time
Too many cities in ONtario, look at Peterborough with over 9% unemployed
anyway try to post something current before she is gone

Give us a quick list of Trudeau policies and legislation that has fueled this growth......
But hey, my taxes are up, my benefits are down and the deficit is balloning.
your taxes are not up redridinghood give it a rest
our debt has ballooned since the early 2000's wtf ? now its an issue But Jean was horrible
Just 3 years ago Harper was at 30+ billion deficit - ONEWAY
you sure were giddy about Harper and his debt plan, best ever - tell me what Harper did as a piece of legislation? lmao ONEWAY
GROWTH AT RECORD NUMBERS
He has done more in one year than Harper ever did, Harper alienated Canada in so many ways - Now investment is coming back in a big way.
build an environment for business and they come - isn't that what you always say?
Meeting at the G20 in Hamburg, reconfirming our joint commitment to the rules-based international trading system, we agreed to set the date of 21 September 2017 to start the provisional application of the agreement, thus allowing for all the necessary implementing measures to be taken before that date,” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a statement
With the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) now a fait accompli, Canada is pushing forward on another big trade file — its first bilateral trade agreement with China.

What percentage profit do you think is acceptable to ensure enough money for R&D?
Fact is the inventor in R&D doesn't get the profit, a huge rich company does.
R&D will never stop, its more of a pride thing then anything else Most huge discoveries are done by Universities through grants, not some company wanting to save people.

Drug costs make up about 10% of the US HC costs. Big Pharm averages around 20% profit. Cut the profit to zero and you save 2% on our HC. You think R&D wouldn't be affected by zero profit margins?
Angry Ginger is exactly right. America is picking up the tab for other countries. Time to spread out the costs.
8 minutes ago, Angry ginger said:of course they are when the drug companies can't make enough because of regulation in other countries they just take it on here because they can. Take a look at what they did with epipens here last year doubling the price overnight on a product that had been out in the market for years because theres no regulation. If we refuse to allow ourselves to be taken advantage of they can try to squeak out their profits elsewhere, end of the day the companies should be making a healthy profit but on the back of all consumers using it not just those in countries who failed to regulate the cost.
USA is not the supplier of the world, they are not the only ones with R&D costs.

we need to implement price controls like everyone else so the rest of the world starts paying their share of the R&D costs. we make ourselves an easy target now for pharma being the largest market in the world and best of all an unregulated one.
dude other countries are not getting a discount, they are not make huge profits for Health
Keep tossing the R&D words around, it won't help you one bit.
Almost everything to do with Health Care is double to cost in USA - PROFIT FOR HEALTH is the only reason

Simple solution. Let the US buy from foreign pharmacies. The left has wanted this for years and I agree.
so buy from a Country that has price control?
The reason behind the cost difference lies in two important words — price controls. In Canada, the government has set up the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board to ensure that pharmaceutical prices do not get excessive. They even have a law that says that the price of a breakthrough medication, the first of its kind, cannot exceed its median price around the world. A great example is the new cancer drug, Campath, which sells for $600 to $700 in countries like Sweden, Britain and France. Its U.S. price? A whopping $2,400. Now that’s a hard pill to swallow (well, not really, since Campath is given by intravenous injection, but you get the idea).
The United States is the only industrialized country that does not use price controls for pharmaceuticals. -

He has gotten there very fast.
?
still 130 billion away from Harper's numbers and 270 billion away from Mulroney's numbers
I say he has got room - I doubt a balanced budget is in range for quite awhile - Harper's false balance attempt hurt Canada in the end that is clear as history shows

She regularly advocates the armed forces, law enforcement and middle America. She will reach a younger audience and be successful at it. Wipe your chaffed ass and move on.
very familiar with her no need to go on about it.
If you like that type of reporting go for it
I don't take thrill news very serious left or right, You? I think you seem to love it
listen to this, Trump asked the Military what to do with Transgenders
this is the shitty reporting I am talking about
Dunford said Pentagon policy on transgender troops would not change until the White House has issued Trump’s directive to Secretary of Defense James Mattis through formal channels — not on Twitter — and the secretary’s office issues guidance on implementation to the service chiefs. It’s unclear when that might happen.
Why is Tomi saying trumps ban blah blah, Military agrees blah blah from a fucking tweet
comments are great
Fuck you, fuck obama, fuck trump. Did you serve? No? Well, then allow me to retort, let the military handle the military and let people like you who think anyone in the military gives a shit about your privileged opinion or false gratitude while you prop yourself up off your neophyte opinions on the military you Essene. When will garbage like you cease to exist? You are politician and will say anything to prop yourself up against your own people. Go to hell CMT girl.
hope to see lots of post of her here in the near future

Ontario has gone to hell under NinnyBag
in Ontario
There really isn't much anybody can do I agree. This problem just like the Traffic issues in Toronto where they campaign and make the road zero traffic. Its not going to happen.
Rent control is a good thing, this new added bit it rather useless but its in response to thousands of complaints ..
It will back fire because now an owner can kick you out and give you last months rent back and done, no other action can be taken. Seems like a win for the owners that want to enter daily rental market
