Man you must have a set of balls to rent out a house.

not sure what the RTA is like in Alberta but in BC it is scary as hell to rent out a place.

Majority are honest and don't give you much grief but if you get one of those tenants from hell there is little recourse. They ruin it for everyone else. Part of the reason why AIRBNB and other short term rentals are so popular, which of course ruins the rental market as well.


I see in some immigrants groups some dudes renting out a home, then packing mattresses everywhere they can and re renting to immigrants. Like a 1+den 700 sqft ends up with 5-6 people living in it lol. Or a SFH having like 12 people.

That's B.C LIFE. There's just sooooooooooo many more people who are irresponsible and just don't give a shit these days.

My rant is the icbc adjuster deemed my wife at 25% fault and 75% fault to the guy that was driving a range rover with his 2 month expired N license and expired registration that deliberately hit my wife's car while she was fully stopped. And attempted to hit and run in the heavy traffic after the fireworks on Canada day, and cop on foot chased his sad ass down and forced him to pull over. All this was caught on cam. Icbc somehow deems my wife at 25% at fault. It's a fucking joke. It took the idiot 2 month to decide too. She's obviously gonna ask for another adjuster or go to court. Told her to get a lawyer to sue the dude since he wasn't insured.


ICBC is a tyrannical nightmare. I have heard this story so many times and it happened to me as well. Your story is just more extreme in it's ridiculousness.

They want to get both drivers at fault and I think the threshold for premium increases is 25% so that is what they have done to her. They are just trying to make more money on the premiums.

With no competition this is the type bullshit you have to deal with. All of this back and forth is costing taxpayers money too, when it should be an obvious open and shut case against that lunatic.

To make matters worse now you have this "no fault" insurance scam so it is almost impossible to collect a settlement for bodily injuries. Now they just make you fill out one form after the next and drag everything along even further while compensating you a humiliating ammount.

I get the need to eliminate frivolous six figure + lawsuits but now you are not even made whole from your injuries. It's terrifying to be involved in a car accident with ICBC.

Yeah with no faults, I swear icbc just passes anyone on their driving test and want unready drivers on the road to cause accidents. Sounds ridiculous, I know but there's no way my wife's friend, wife, my sis in law, all got into an accident this year and the other driver is a N and it's an accident that shouldn't have even happened in the first place. Like one of them legit thought she had the right of way turning left on a green light, and literally smashed into my sis in law as she was driving 52km in a 50km on a green light going straight.

I also blame those fuckers that abused and scammed icbc for $$ payouts, and u know how Canada is. They come up with the dumbest way to find the solution to it, with an ulterior motive and the law passes cuz they're gullible as fuck.

What the hell is going on in Canada?

The liberals and the Bloc just formed a coalition and want to pause certain carbon taxes that will help certain provinces, namely those that use heating oil but everyone else should still pay the carbon taxes?

Why is a separatist party allowed to have a voice on these matters? The NDP severed relations with the Liberals now it seems? What kind of a shame vote is taking place.

The Bloc has a problem with our "dirty industries" but takes equalization payments from those sources? I can't get a grasp on this.


Is the goal to divide Canada? If that is his plan he is doing a great job.

They want everyone to use heat pumps but they are ineffective below -10 degrees? Who has 10k + to pay for them in the first place? Does someone's buddy own a heat pump company?


Am I missing something. This is all just crazy to me. I can't understand the logic behind any of this.
