A 2 bedroom here goes for about 650.00 to 1000.00 a month, depending on the area. I can't imagine having to find 400 more!!

Even as it is, my mortgage takes one of my paychecks. Plus pills and food and my smokes.

It's really really hard right now, isn't it? Money wise. For everybody.

I am so glad that you live in a rent controlled building as well as the program to cap the rent.

Let us know what you find out about Canada. Our meds get pretty danged expensive.
