It's especially rent, there was an article in Québec about someone who saw her rent increase from 1750$ to 2900$, condo was not re-sold or anything, it's just the owner who want to eat poors.

I thought Quebec had strict rent control? That shouldn't have been possible. It's the kind of thing I would expect to hear out of BC or Ontario.

BC has rent control set by the province. They set raises below inflation for a few years now too.

With many, many loopholes.

Not if the apartment is less than 5 years old, there's no limit in this case
