This is unsurprising. The ODSP shelter portion is about $672/month for a single person. It's very difficult to find shelter for that amount in most places in Ontario, for one.

non-investor landlords
Isn't that an oxymoron? A landlord is by definition, an investor. Maybe you mean something else...
Right, but you can also rent affordable housing...
Are you suggesting that building affordable homes wouldn't help anyone escape homelessness?
Landlords already can and do check the credit of tenants. The new change is only that paying rent affects your credit.
but will it blend?
I feel like I'm missing something. Don't we have a housing shortage, not merely an "owner-occupied" home shortage or a "rental" home shortage? Somebody please tell me what I'm missing.
If too many homes were owned by investors and rented out, why aren't rented homes more affordable? If you say, "greedy landlords," are you suggesting that the roughly 1.4 million landlords in Canada (source) are all effectively colluding? I find that highly implausible.
If we had sufficient housing supply for the demand in general, wouldn't that result in lower prices to both rent and own, depending on what's right for each individual?
$100/pop on eBay. At the time, Hotmail inboxes had a storage limit of 2 MB.
The imaged is cropped, but cropping doesn't remove the context of the image, and it isn't worth the risk of making women feel less welcome in tech, which is a big problem already.
If I may, why is it so important to you that the image continues to be used over other images, against the wishes of Lena and IEEE?
TD seemed happy to throw him under the bus, though.
