In today’s episode, John talks to Murtaza Haider about rent controls in Canada and their potential impact on rental supply. Murtaza is a Data Science and Real Estate Management professor at Toronto Metropolitan University.

In the lively chat, we discuss why Ontario has seen very little growth in rental housing even though the new rental supply is not rent-controlled. We also discuss the differences in approach to rental housing between North American and European economists and governments. North Americans lean more towards a free market approach to rental housing, while Europeans have coupled adequate rental supply while maintaining policies that protect tenants.
