He is in his third term. Unless you think he will run again. A recession is coming and that usually ends up changing governments. I think he retires out in two years.
Doug Ford looks to end rent control

No, you're simply shifting the goalposts to accommodate your narrative and ignoring the topic of this thread.
Wrong.
The thread title says 'rent control' when Bill 60 was about leases.
Your question also asked about rent control and not the changes to leasing.
So I answered your question.
You should have asked the right question.
But that raises another question, do you support DoFo's 2018 cuts to rent control?

Even if he doesn't run, it would be political suicide for his party though.
Thuggo's salivating attempted landlord and investor "cash grab" from leaseholders was just another self-inflicted pie-in-the-face, 360 degree haymaker.
Oooh, just the thought of all that "cash grab" from ordinary Ontarians to landlords, investors, private and corporate interest made Thuggo pee his pants, eh?
Thuggo, aka Captain Extra 10% Tariffs Man, just stated that his just self-cancelled $75million waste of an ad campaign was, get this, "the most successful ad in the history of the world!".
Talk about Trumpian language, talk about our very own Trump right here in Ontario, talk about Doug the Thug.

Its the DoFo way.
Spend more, get less but as long as your donors profit it all its fine.
But, of course.
Yeah, sure, right.
Bro, you are clueless regarding the depths of "oh, he's the best of the bunch" Duggo's corruption, vindictiveness and incompetence in addition to sorely lacking any reality based cognition of the city of Toronto's governance and life.
To think, that getting rid of a few kms of urban, local, neighborhood bike lanes and banning ASE improves motor vehicle caused congestion and gridlock, never mind SAFETY, is not only against all the available evidence it is also pure Fordian divisive, culture war bullshit.
Take a bow.

Doug Ford is making sure that the other parties will never be able to outspend him during campaigns.
The Libs and NDP will have no chance again.

Personally I think tenants rights have gone too far and as a result thousands of apts remain unrented as people just don't wanna deal with it. There SHOULD be a black list, it should work like a credit rating. If people are bad tenants they deserve to be homeless.
Where are these "thousands of unrented apartment units"?
Are they in the room with us now?

not in the room in the GTHA
There are a bunch of micro condos that aren't sellable or rentable.
Rents have declined slightly over the last year because of them and people not being able to afford rent at all.
DoFo is screwing with the elections again, pulling the same GOP type tricks to keep him in power.
Yes, I do because when I purchase a condo for investment purposes, I make sure it's built after 2018. Rent controls do not benefit me as an investor, although the topic of this thread is the new changes that were proposed, and he backed away from.
Once again, you love moving the goal posts to suit your narrative.
Doh!
"Almost 24,000 new condo units remain UNSOLD in 2024". Doh!
UNSOLD NEW CONDO UNITS, not rental units. Doh!

Great time to buy if they are given at fire sale prices!!!!
Rents come down, I don't know why Frankie is so worried all the time. LOL
As per ur link:
Doh!

Sheeze.
That's because the market was in an overpriced bubble and collapsed.
And traffic and over-building issues are making downtown a less desirable location than the burbs now - which is the polar opposite of how things used to be.
Aaah, the pieces of the Ford infatuation enigma syndrome are starting to fall in place.
Love it!
Give me a break, you asked about rent control, I answered and then you had a meltdown because you wanted to talk about the leasing changes.
I suppose your comment about making money is at the core of conservative values. Screw the common good if you can make a bit of cash personally.
Long term it won't work, and if you've invested in a condo you probably also noticed prices crashing. Nobody is buying micro condos and builds are stopping.
But if the rental market isn't healthy or kids can't make enough to rent or buy here then you're resale will have issues.
Sure, buy a micro condo or two.
And buy a time share in Jamaica today as well, another smart investment.
Its worth noting that the libs and ndp did way better than Ford, it was only their refusal to do seat sharing that kept DoFo in power.
