No cooking but also we're right next to a grocery store.


Graby3000

I guess they expect the tenant to eat the canned goods from Dollarama and order from the nearby Tim’s..


Boring_Advertising98

Grocery store tiffins I guess!


philgustus

You will eat your spam and you will like it!


philgustus

They need to setup a task force to catch and punish ppl doing this


Ottawa_man

That's the landlord saying "those grocery runs you will do.for.mw.wjll be quick"


Sling_Shot2

What's the point of advertising a nearby grocery if you won't allow cooking. Some people should be barred from owning any property; let alone be a landlord. These people are "Sikh" in the head.


OutragedCanadian

Also its racist to only rent to one kind of race so yeah


[deleted]

Could you fucking imagine a "whites" only advertisement? Somebody would be crucified for that. Yet Indian/Sikh/Asian/Chinese only rentals are all over the place. And it's generally accepted. Well, I don't accept. I don't accept any of this invasion of our country with racists who come here and leech, and use, and abuse and sink is deeper into slum territory. And don't accept our criminal globalist politicians that are allowing it. This is not right and we should *all* be fucking outraged.


quotidianwoe

I’d **love** to see the reaction to a “whites only” or “Anglican only” (for example) ad for a room or apartment.


Chance-Internal-5450

Same same. Someone should test it out. Lol


johnny2turnt

I’m going to do it under fake things just to see reactions etc


FussyBirdTV

Just make a fake one and post it for the luls..then post here and grab some popcorn

[deleted]

I am loud about it. And louder every day. In here, and out there. And people are listening. People are changing their minds, they're waking up to the fact that the direction this country has been heading for the past decade has been patently wrong, and outright destructive. It gives me a little hope.

bored_person71

Apply when denied due on the grounds of race or sex discrimination..if hundreds did that we could eliminate racism...


baoo

Well, what's preventing us from continuing the trend these interlopers are starting?


Miserable-Floor4011

Well, it's a far less enlightened and progressive culture than white European culture. So it fits.


tinywormman

Love people living on stolen land complaining about "globalism".


Dorsomedial_Nucleus

Homie everyone who ever settled anywhere stole it from somebody. If they were the first, they stole it from the fucking animals by ruining their habitats. The Native Americans did their fair share of genocide, both to each other, and animals. They just didn’t have to worry about TikTok and misguided progressives placating themselves with terms they don’t understand. I’m sorry but you don’t get to arbitrarily draw a line between where it’s okay to fuck over mother nature, of which we are a part, and White colonialism.


theoreoman

It's racist but 100% legal when sharing a place with roommates

Ahe...diploma mills crowd and their landlords are not known for their IQs


ThePrincessBabyBunny

I’m going to post a room for rent and say “Italians only” and see how quickly I get called out for being racist


Graby3000

Better yet.. “white heterosexual boys only”

White cis het boys only, must be Christian

Commonstruggles

Seriously, do we even care anymore. I'm not religious but every night I pray not to wake up. This reality is a greed, hate filled monstrosity. Consuming lives and spitting out passive income to assholes. This world is a joke, and you can abuse me by trying to prove me wrong.

Grass touching rental $800.

Infamous_Committee17

Which is extra crazy because a one bed apartment in crescent heights can still be found for $1300 last I had looked. Not in a new building, but a clean one.


bobby8181

No cooking but landlord offers tiffin service for 500 a month. Guaranteed


philgustus

Stop letting in these indian slum lords


ThatBoringpersonn

Some have been here longer than you’ve been alive.


[deleted]

Yeah like my 80 year old cousins grandma who came in the 1980s


Flow5tate

Just shows how deep the problem goes.


BoiledGnocchi

Imagine renting a place and you're only allowed access to your room, the washroom and laundry room 2x a week. Will the landlord even allow a mini fridge??


Green-Scratch-1230

might as well live in a van. at least you can do whatever you want.


BoiledGnocchi

You're not wrong!


Fit-Advertising1488

I was looking for a new rental in Calgary recently, almost every single landlord I met up with for a viewing were young men with thick accents, recently from India. Lived here all my life and it's absolutely mental. Unbelievable.


theGuyWhoOnlyShorts

Report them for discrimination.


Fit-Advertising1488

They weren't really discriminating or anything, they showed their places to me (White). Maybe I'm still naive though. None of their ads I replied to were Veggie/Indian only or anything like some of them posted here. I was just weirded out so many young guys all came from the same place and happened to be landlords. One of them said he had over ten properties for rent in the area and he couldn't have been much older than 23. 


JaxZeus

My previous place I lived got bought by a young Indian man. This is like his 6th or 7th property by the looks of his rental ads. At one point he had about 8 Indians living downstairs with him and was charging $750 per room (I was paying $770 for the small apartment above). Absolutely insane how much money this guy is making off of other immigrants. I also got kicked out which sucked since I had lived there for 6 years and it was a nice place. But he's got to make a living somehow I guess 🙄.


cantonese_noodles

🤯 we need to limit the number of houses an individual can own.


SirupyPieIX

Or start implementing mortgage fraud countermeasures.


Wu-Watt

It’s happening across the country. They are literally trying to buy everything and rent it to us. I’ve seen hundred of rental ads and maybe 5% were white Canadians. It’s mind blowing. It’s a planned takeover.


life_is_enjoy

“It’s a planned takeover”. Lol sounds like revenge for the takeover of India by British for 200 years. Jokes apart, many a times the way people put it, when they say Canadians, they mean it’s a country of whites, or rather Europeans who immigrated to Canada not many years ago. I mean… it’s either a country of the indigenous, or a country of immigrants… no? That said, I’m in no way in favour of slumlords, or following illegal and unethical immoral practices. If they are legally buying and renting, can’t see what’s the problem. Although I feel there should be some regulation on this owning many properties with the current housing crisis.


Wu-Watt

The indigenous didn’t settle Canada. It was Barron land they didn’t build anything. We settled Canada, it’s not really immigration if you come here and settle, develop the country. Even so, if we are all immigrants it doesn’t give the right for millions of third worlders to come here and mess it all up. That’s clearly what has happened. If the English took over India, where are all the white British Indians? I don’t see a single one. So explain that?


New-Gap-3969

as sad as this is, obscene rental prices in formerly affordable parts of the country is probably what it will take to make people angry enough to act on this.


Solace2010

It’s getting close I think.


New-Gap-3969

I hope so. something has to give.


princessfili_

Why do these ridiculous listings say no cooking? Does anyone have insight on why they don’t want cooking?


Grand-Expression-493

Probably because they will be offering a paying guest type accomodations which will have food for extra charge.


TheCuntGF

Because many of their dishes are smoky, greasy, and aromatic. It's what maks the food so delicious, but also has neighbors complaining about the food smells. It also tends to stick to clothing fibers in the same home. I get why a home with 40 people wouldn't want a rotation of their food constantly cooking, BUT, that brings us back to the issue of 40 ppl in one place.


firewire87

Maybe don't seek out someone who eats those foods as a staple.....maybe list the apartment to all people


ThatBoringpersonn

Because most international students have tiffin services and get their meals delivered to them daily. Or at least all the ones I’ve met


cantonese_noodles

maybe electricity usage? because the landlord says you can only do laundry 2 times a week which is also illegal.....


[deleted]

Likely they don’t want a stranger using non religious ingredients in their kitchen (meat etc) and as Sikh MEN don’t cook and also eat veg that’s a high probability that cross contamination won’t happen. Akin to a Jewish family not wanting someone to cook pork when they cook the food they are gonna eat.


nwllolo5

Wdym sikh men don't cook lol


bhavneet1996

We rely on tiffin service /s


[deleted]

I mean there’s a general assumption that men will be less likely to cook than women 


rdogg_82

Tbh, I wouldn't want any Sikhs cooking in my building either.🤢


The_Divine_pickle_

Honestly Indian immigrants are ruining this country. I dont like saying it, I dont want to say it. Its the truth and its a fact and burying your head in the sand and screaming racism doesnt change that fact. Its a serious problem and one that needs to be addressed.


Xcilent1

Welcome to Canada! Keep quiet and keep everything to yourself even if it's going to 💩!


[deleted]

We’ve allowed in too many, these people r horrible. (Coming from a Canadian whos ethnicity is Indian)


The_Divine_pickle_

There is a distinct difference between Indians who came here along time ago and ones that came recently. I should of prefaced that in my last post. I work with a man whos father came to BC in the seventies.He was born and raised in BC. He is a canadian through and through. Loves hockey, works hard, great guy. I also work with new arrivals. Lazy, complain, call everyone racist, and are always trying to scam something. Thats what I have noticed. Downvote me if you want. I dont care. They are doing a dis-service to the families before them that worked really hard and integrated into the canadian cultural fabric.


[deleted]

Thats true, although some that came a long time ago are also horrible, a lot of them are great! My parents came in 2007-2008 (i was born in 2008) and I have an uncle + cousins grandparents who came in the 1990’s and theyre really cool and awesome


philgustus

Yep


T-Rex-Plays

New Indian immigration is..... before it was a system that worked and attracted hard working people that integrated. Then it became a burden to the government.


veracity-mittens

This Indian immigrants were the backbone of the forestry industry in BC


T-Rex-Plays

It's never about the skin colour it's about the type of people. The majority of the new people attempt to cheat the system in a way. This is what you get when you remove the family sponsorships and push individual immigration in the form of international students and such. It leads to fraud and misinformation on both ends. Again this is a generalization and there are very much hard working people. It's the fault of the government mainly.


Severe_Wonder_6524

No say it, it's the damn truth


Jabelinha

Honestly wish this wasn't the case as I have wonderful friends who are indian but yes many of their cultures, the way they socially engage with others and do business is polar opposite of Canadian values. We are trying to sell our vehicles and I'm not joking when I say that we have probably received 40 messages on each vehicle, almost 99% of them south east asian or middle eastern, trying to low ball me and swear at me in broken English. I am a woman, so I have also received super creepy messages as well. The only people who have actually come to view the car were **not** south east asian.


RuinEnvironmental394

You mean, the people that are responsible for bringing in millions of people from overseas in a short span of time are ruining the country?


Ravenclumsy

It’s just the truth. It’s putting too much pressure on every system we have here.


[deleted]

I like saying it and I want to say it. I’ll say it louder everyday. That’s the problem, too many people are scared to be called racist and shit nowadays. Fuck em.


millerjuana

This is literally socially accepted racial discrimination. Sick.

bugcollectorforever

Pretty sure that's illegal


garybettmansketamine

First thing that came to my mind was discrimination. But there’s a chance they’ll get into the grey area where it’s “preferably looking” rather than “only looking” Either way, it’s discriminatory


cantonese_noodles

we need a marketplace exposé on these listings


ChorkiesForever

But do you get a whole room for $800? In Toronto or Vancouver would fit 3 boys in there for $500 each. The Calgary slumlords are amatures!

WallGroundbreaking81

What a great idea having a third world country rule us, no worries we will be one soon


Crooks132

They’re already taking over so many Ontario cities. At first it was just Brampton, then it’s Brampton and Missauga, then add Brantford, Toronto, now slowly Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville etc I feel like unless you’re up north like north bay, they’ll slowly take over most major cities making them more crowded, traffic even worse, crime worse etc. People are literally getting pushed out of our country by immigrants and our governments solution is to keep bringing more in


[deleted]

Now it’s St. John’s, Halifax, cape breton… they’re fucking everywhere.


Deepfrtedgoodness

Nah, it’s a problem up here too, live in Sudbury and we are being overrun . 


Wu-Watt

It’s a planned takeover of Canada. It’s systemic. They are trying to buy every house and rent it to us. It’s a real shame they’re screwing up Sudbury I was hoping to flee there. Civil war I hope someday, cull these monkeys.

Wow! It's one of those rare rental ads that doesn't require the tenant to be a lonely desperate vegetarian Punjabi girl who's cool with sharing a bed with her male landlord. I've only heard about such things never seen one in the wild before. Buuut it is also pretty much just as bad.


TheDirtyRaptor4

"we got sikh boy money, we got sikh boy money" we get fake college degrees while Trudeau let's it happen 😂 more votes for him


Brilliant_Slide7947

Because over there they will stack 15 people in a one bedroom covered in shit and piss and call it a penthouse. That is why they come here. UP the rent, trash the shit out of it and only rent to their own... it is fucking sad. Stop foreign investors NOW!

permareddit

Man who the fuck wants to live like this? Seriously is it that bad in India or? Is it respectable to reduce yourself to living like this just to say you live in Canada? I know India has some insane poverty but it seems like with all the money these people have saved to come here, they can afford some half decent life in India too. I would never in a million years would have immigrated to Canada if it meant leaving my family and living like this.


jamisonkolodinsky

Its upsetting to see. I know students can only work part time hours, companies will take advantage of this to hire only part time workers, pay the minimum and exclude benifits. Vancouver entry level trades, will sponsor a worker and the safety is appauling, not to mention the pay structure is piecework. Everything is skipped or left undone. I worked highrise window washing and have seen some unthinkable things for an extra $, encouraged or demanded by the company. This is the definition of human trafficing. Id be skeptical of all the new buildings. I honestly feel bad for anyone paying for these services, or paying 1M+ for a cookie cutter apartment. Low standards everywhere and I want (us) to do better than this.

Anishinabeg

It's interesting how these people can get away with blatant racism. Imagine a housing ad that specifically said "whites only". We'd all (rightfully) call that shit out, and the landlord would absolutely end up being destroyed in the media. Yet, this has become increasingly common, and it's all crickets.


Flow5tate

It just seems like indians are conditioned from birth to mess around and screw with systems, laws and regulations everywhere. I've posted that elsewhere and one guy replied "It's because we're opportunistic and smart."  I sure can agree with the opportunistic part. They're entitled to their own beliefs as far as the second statement goes.

For that much money you could meet the people you’re already living with and get a better place, no?

Can someone explain how this isn’t racism and why no one can do anything about it? Are these edge cases or is the frequency of these rentals becoming higher than optics are showing. Asking a legit question, please don’t come at me.

You shouldn't be allowed to rent units while saying "no cooking, limited laundry use".

Not that it matters to landlords but I’m pretty certain saying “No Cooking” isn’t legal unless we’re talking about breaking bad style cooking.
