    I really don’t understand why people always specify foreign investment. What difference does it make to me as a tenant if my slumlord has their Canadian citizenship or not?

    Housing shouldn’t be an investment at all, regardless of the would-be investors’ nationality.

        None of my landlords have been corporations or foreigners, yet they all owned enough housing for 20 families or more.

        The system itself is broken and all who abuse of it need to be reigned in, regardless of where they come from or if they hide behind an LLC or not.
