Manitoba’s rent control Jerusalem is a mirage. Even a study commissioned by a Manitoba government that strongly supports the policy insists that it has little effect on rental rates, whereas rent control that did hold them down would make the rental market worse, not better.
As Manitoba’s rent-control-that-isn’t illustrates incely, the only way rent control can work is if it doesn’t. Saskatchewan deserves better.
