A new report on the cost of renting in Canada paints a bleak picture of affordability in most cities in the country, including Toronto, where two full-time minimum-wage workers do not earn enough to reasonably afford a one-bedroom apartment.

The report, released by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, calculated a “rental wage,” which is the hourly wage that would be required to afford rent while working a 40-hour week and spending no more than 30 per cent of one’s gross income on housing.

“The fundamentals of why we’re paying so much for stuff doesn’t make sense,” the 48-year-old business owner told CTVNews.ca in a telephone interview on June 12. “We would always come up with more income, but new costs would pop up.

如果你非得在多伦多或者温哥华生活，又没有足够的竞争力，那就没办法了。You are not done with Canada, you are done with Toronto.

现在已经有人开始把多伦多和纽约，上海这样的城市相提并论了，在那混生活难是肯定的，不然反而不正常了。

目前情况可以用absurd 来形容。
我儿子在大厂IT，年薪近15万，花$2800租一室房，最近准备买房自住，BMO 只给了50万多一点的贷款预批，这点钱，如果我不支持，在渥太华也买不起房。

时机不太好，现在租比买划算。

如果为了自己的一点蝇头小利，大家再继续支持自由党，情况会更加糟糕

难说，一旦经济萎缩，利息大降，房价会继续飞升。
我现在seriously considering 买房，忍三年高利息。
私企没有pensions，不知道公司给的股票未来是不是废纸，买点房退休用。

你儿子在markham吗？那地方房价难降，特别是downtown

温哥华。他嫌房子吵，睡觉不好，想搬，他现在那个房子都涨到3500月租了，又放弃搬了。

我儿子去年把公寓卖了，想换个townhouse,现在遥遥无期，都想去美国了

你加拿大这么久，应该底子厚，支持一下吧。孩子多没办法，如果一个应该压力不大。

孩子爸爸不想管孩子，儿子不想让我多掏钱，以为能像我们一样白手起家，现在看来越来越不现实了

确实。我当年带2、3万加币来加拿大（然后再也没有从国内拿钱），又读书，又打最低工资工，40岁才开始买房，现在看来几乎不可能

上海也没这么艰难的啊！

以前生活在加拿大很安逸，可以躺着看别的国家的笑话，忽然一夜醒来，发现自己就是个笑话。真得感谢土豆，用了不到8年的时间，实现了别的国家几十年才能达到的目标。
