Who needs this much living space?

I didn't. I just asked him a friendly question and he responded with a disrespectful and racist put down.
It's what what past families did to survive and I'm sure this practice will grow considering the financial outlook of the future
This was kinda always the way for some cultures. It is becoming necessity for most people regardless of race or culture. Many white Canadians are keeping their children home longer or having parents come back to live with them.
I would not like to live in a place like that, it is so big you never really know if someone is breaking in in the basement or other side of the house.
I would have to have Jake with me for my protection all the time.
Yup, a stainless HiPower with a golden trigger! And a shiny, bulletproof tinfoil hat.
And have a better group of people in your life that aren't going to try to take you out!
People are ok with it until it happens to the house beside you and devalues your property.
It's not always a nice extended family that is quiet and respects the bylaws and neighbourhood...which I agree is perfectly fine.
Most often they are illegal rooming houses.
It often becomes loud after hours, many many cars parked on the street, and on the lawn when there are too many for the driveway, and I've had many friends say (and show photos) of the people in these illegal rooming houses not only throwing trash outside their doors and windows onto the property which then blows all over the neighbourhood from the wind, but some even start defecating and urinating outside.
When it happens to the house next to you and negatively impacts your property value, trust me, your perspective will not be an accepting and loving citizen embracing new comers.
That's horrible to have full grown children living with you. Just when you get out they pull you back in..
You are conflating two separate issues.
An illegal rooming house full of low lifes and an extended family trying to pay off their mortgage to make better lives for each other and their families are two different situations.
If the house beside you or in your neighbourhood is causing a disturbance for you, then get off Terb and research the laws regarding what you think are infractions.
Then learn to write concise (NON-EMOTIONAL, NON-RACIST effective complaints to the appropriate municipal by-law enforcement departments, Fire department, criminal law enforcement, parking enforcement, Electrical Safety Authority enforcement, Health Department, CRA if you know the rent is being paid in cash, to start with. And if you are in Brampton, I'm positive a letter directly to Mayor Patrick Brown and your Councillor will result in them getting on each of the departments as well as some ideas you never thought of.
Then go get your other neighbour's email and street addresses, and cc' them with all the complaints you send to each department. Follow up with them to suggest taht they use your letters as a template to make their own complaints.
And cc the mayor and Councillor on the complaints. And cc the departments on your emails to the Mayor and Councillor.
Trust me, doing the above will solve your problem.
Whining on a hooker board does sweet fuck all except.
The problem, people can’t afford to live single anymore. The cost of living is just too high.
I never said this was currently happening to me and yes, you're right that's how to deal with it....a very lengthy and annoying process.
It can take years.
What if you want/need to sell your house in the meantime?
But expanding on the discussion isn't "whining"....Dude, give me a break...look at all the bullshit people talk about on here LOL.
None of it is necessary and very little of it would ever be written if it weren't for the anonymous factor.
So in other words, since this is a bullshit discussion anyways, you feel it is worth your time to throw in (and defend) your conjecture conclusionary opinion based on your racial prejudices? You make the effort to comment on something you have no direct experience with, and does not actually affect you anyways?
Got it.
BTW< further illustrating your ignorance, it does not "take years". It is not a lengthy and annoying process to anyone who isn't just a fucking whiny kunt KarenI Takes maybe a couple days of spare time to write the complaints and email them. Trust me, the entities I mentioned above will be all over it like white on rice. I bet the Fire Department arrives within a day. They themselves have the power to order the occupants to vacate the house immediately.
if nothing happens within a week, then call CTV and CBC news. They are always craving drama and wanting to create outrage for the next newscast. Pointing out how the authorities are deliberately negligent etc etc is solid gold for ratings!
And finally. iF you NEED to sell your house SO FAST that you can't take the time to try making legitmate complaints to the parties i mentioned, then you have bigger problems.
You sound like the typical NIMBY Karen whose first whine is that <insert whatever here> is going to RUIN property values. The ONLY thing that has "ruined ppoperty valiues' has been interest rates and greedy, selfish homeowners trying to cash in on the gold rush of market demand that these immigrants have created by competing to buy the NIMBY Karen's houses.
What else you got?
I can tell you don’t live in a house LOL…probably a little box in the sky?So in other words, since this is a bullshit discussion anyways, you feel it is worth your time to throw in (and defend) your conjecture conclusionary opinion based on your racial prejudices?

I have friends who’ve been dealing with these issues and it doesn’t get addressed at the speed with which you describe.
The legacy news outlets don’t rush out to cover illegal rooming houses bro not sure what you’re smoking.
People want to live in desirable areas, near their family, near cool things, etc.
There are affordable places to live but no one wants to live there. Lots of places in Canada that are affordable but people choose not to go there
Naw. Once you start looking for jobs, you see why no one goes or stays in these areas.
Of course the opportunities are limited compared to areas that are desirable. However people do work and find employment in these areas and cost of living is much more reasonable.
You may not find employment in your desired field but you can find other work.
It's really depends of peoples priorities. Living in Toronto and not owning a home or living elsewhere and owning a home. Making 6 figures in T.O or 50k in another province. It's all a trade off. Some people can't see past the lifestyle and objectively see the numbers that make financial sense.
