Rent control policies are regulations that limit the amount landlords can increase rent, intended to keep housing affordable. Proponents argue that it makes housing more affordable and prevents exploitation by landlords. Opponents argue that it discourages investment in rental properties and reduces the quality and availability of housing.

Yes, but within reason to avoid landlords not being able to make a profit.
@9MQ523C2wks2W
Yes, and it should be tied to inflation and overall rent cost
@9MNP82G2wks2W
It depends on the how much interest the mortgage is on, with rising inflation landlords need enough to pay mortgage.

May be temporarily. But, the market should be allowed to run its course. Let supply and demand play itself out. Solve the problem at more grass roots level such as controlling immigration, develop and urbanize smaller cities to take the pressure out of the already saturated big cities like Toronto.
