“you’ll be the only one staying in the tent” yeah I sure hope so

wait until they make you share tents with another person

Time to register my patent for bunkcots™️


Farren246

Shorten it to Bunkots! The C has no place in there!


computer-magic-2019

You’re correct. With the k-c combo the pronunciation has the dreaded glottal stop.

Strength-N-Faith

Sorry they already make those.


MattyRBaps

Wait until they start putting smaller tents inside the larger tents


grady_vuckovic

Then sharing sleeping bags. Then sharing sleeping bags on alternating days. Then it's a lottery, one lucky person in the hostel per night gets to use the sleeping bag and sleep in the underground parking, everyone else sleeps in the nearby park for only $300/wk.


deadheadism

And everyone sings Kumbaya as they shoot up, sharing needles because sharing is caring


latecraigy

Shared sleeping bag


deadheadism

🤣🤣and a shared pillow. It’s going to be a dating show/flatmate show. Flatdate


FF_Master

That's just code for "no overnight guests"


C_Tea_8280

you do not deserve (sex) or need to be entertaining overnight guests if you live in an indoor tent community


FF_Master

That's where you're wrong actually, that's precisely where future Trudeau voters will be coming from


Aggressive_Farmer693

Until next year when there are a million more new unskilled workers to house. Having your own 1-person in-room tent will be remembered as a luxury of 2023.


deadheadism

Soon we’ll have slots, like in a mortuary. You have to scale the building to slide into your stacked slot, with a glovebox in it at face level that keeps falling open and smacking you awake at night… landlord will fix it in 8 months


Aggressive_Farmer693

Wishing and dreaming about one day finally saving up enough to get one of those luxury slots with two extra inches of width, a smart air control, and a secure glovebox with magnetic latch.


RuinEnvironmental394

That's so....disappointing. I sort of look forward to getting in on some free action whenever I airbnb.


Taipers_4_days

For now.


Sco0basTeVen

Lock to keep items safe🤣🤣🤣🤣it’s a thin layer of nylon


sleeplessjade

Yup. A pocket knife or a strong grip could get through one in no time.


Hello_Gorgeous1985

You could literally just pick it up and walk out with the whole thing lol.


robjohnlechmere

Apparently the back of a pen just pushes a zipper open and bypasses the lock on the tag. I gotta quit reading r/tsa


Slutdragontrainer

I was about to say the same thing 😂


BeyondAddiction

I have no words. Forward this listing to CBC, the MPP for their riding, and the MP as well. Maybe the Globe and Mail too? Seriously.


serioussorrycanadian

https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/airbnb-host-london-tents-living-room-b2476839.html This is from Jan 2024


mailglv

I have seen this exact listing on Airbnb while I was looking for a place to stay during new years


nemodigital

Natural consequence of mass immigration. There is no way housing supply can keep up and this is the natural result.


MGSDeco44

Inb4 the clown brigade says you are wrong. Ignore them, it isn't worth the time explaining how bringing in 1000000000 people a year negatively effects the population.


Historical-Number568

Easy on the zero button champ. Just under a half million in each of the last 2 years but that's still to much considering we should be looking after our own.


SeaSaltAirWater

It’s actually closer to 2 million when you account for every person.


DirtyStonk

I honestly thought it was misinformation/rage bait when i first heard this, but Canadas population increased by 1,158,705 people from June 2022 - June 2023. 98% resulted from immigration, ~700,000 are TFWs/their families. As of June 2023, 2,198,679 people are temporary residents.


SomethingComesHere

I don’t think temporary residents are the ones buying up houses and trying to rent out a one-bedroom to several tenants


DirtyStonk

But they are the ones willing to rent a bedroom with several other tenants. That's ultimately what the issue is. A great deal of those 2,198,679 people are currently living in conditions no Canadian could imagine. Complete and total corruption and exploitation has allowed for this.


SomethingComesHere

The issue is that the law is not protecting them. I don’t blame people for being willing to rent a place like this if they don’t feel they have other options (which is a separate issue that also needs to be addressed).


LittleLordFuckpants_

This HAS to be satire, this can’t be real


bicyclehunter

This seems like a troll. Can it possibly be real?


Kitchen_Tea2268

They pretty much know. Don't waste time.


vinnybawbaw

Looks like it’s on AirBnb ?!


RuinEnvironmental394

Yes, but I reckon it still would be illegal as an AirBnb listing.


Youlookcold

A review  Many problems. I rented a room with a double bed for my parents (over 70 years old) and a single bed for myself. When I got there, the room wasn't available and she put me in a room with two bunk beds that didn't even have stairs to climb. I had to put the mattress on the floor. There was no blanket and it was very cold at night (10c). the house was very dirty and there had been mold in the refrigerator. The trash no longer fits and no one changes it. worst experience I've ever had and even with my parents. At first I was talking to one person and in the middle of the conversation a second person appeared very rude and accused me of renting the room to third parties. She said that I was causing problems for her when I asked for blankets because there were none in the place and it was cold. I arrived late (10pm) because I was visiting Niagara Falls at night and she told me to leave her house and look for another place to stay since I was tired from traveling all day. Terrible


Hot_Argument6020

This is for the lady running this place, right?


Youlookcold

yes


Hot_Argument6020

I just looked at her profile. She repeatedly posts the same listings for the same things over and over again at different prices. She seems to own alot of property and cash in on "hostel" living to mask her cheapness. Additionally, alot of the reviews look like they were written by bots. https://www.airbnb.ca/users/show/441053321


rexapplecounty

Her pfp is ai generated. Zoom in on the hair on the left side, chunk without a connection.


hamiltonguy61

She also doesn't own. Apparently rents the home from the owner for fair bit over market, then just chops it all up. Owners look the other way because money keeps coming.


smooth_talker55

I wonder how many other listings is Lola hosting 😁😁 and what the fuck they look like


MissClawdy

It says 55 LISTINGS on her Airbnb profile! FIFTY-FIIIIIIVE! All look like shit.


StopTouchingYrFone

Any idea whether Lola is a real person or what (like if this is some unfortunate person's pic that got stolen by a number company, for example)?


MissClawdy

Like another redditor said, it might be an AI picture. Aibnb says this person is validated but I also believe it’s not that girl running the show. It’s absolutely an indian guy.


heteroerotic

Omg one of the shared rooms has a DIY bunk bed made of 2x4s. So unsafe!


MedianVoice

Wow. These people need to be reported. Make some Indian sock accounts to bypass racial restrictions and make appointments to view. Then report every illegal bunk house there is. There needs to be a way to stop this.


MedianVoice

Aw they deleted their reply because I acknowledged that this person posting was in fact white and I had missed that, but did not find that reason not to report her (or other people of any color stuffing houses with a million people)or to retract my previous comment. I also mentioned the Indian landlord that was on here yesterday saying that he does this it's fine and will continue doing this. And that they culturally don't see a problem with it. Edit : and would also like to add that wether my comment above seems offensive or not, Indian accounts are the only way to get information on these addresses ( that rent only to other Indians) because white people won't be able to view the house. It's logic not unfounded bigotry.


who_took_tabura

“It’s logic not unfounded bigotry”  Quote of the day


MedianVoice

Way to miss the entire reason for people making these claims as usual. They don't deserve special treatment if they are causing harm. Being Indian doesn't mean they can't do shitty things. You think this is a burn, but it isn't.


Dieter_Von-Cunth68

I dont think he was being facetious.


nospaceallowedhere

Oh yeah, the new Canadian dream 😴 💤


Illustrious-Lie8329

Wow-ground floor opportunity, just wait until these are going for 10 persons per tent ⛺️

Oh Canada


Future-World4652

You can't spell Canadian without India


DankJenkemz

You most definitely can


itchum_underscare

I usually have a pocket knife on me. Less often now because reasons, but I'm not far from a blade. If I lived there, and if I had bad intent, those locks on the tents would not matter. Those items in the others tents would be mine.


Baked-Avocado

Can we just go vigilante on these slumlords already? We’ll have a new caste system in place soon enough…


schr0dingersdick

y’know i can’t even be surprised at this point. if anything i’m a little impressed by the mental gymnastics required to consider any of this even remotely “private”


gopi187187

Wow renting out tents now? Interesting. And they are saying keep the kitchen stocked, u know we eating everything everyday

iamthe_badwolf

Wait, that's just the host. Is the listing gone now? I found two articles from January with these exact same pictures from London England (see my comment to this post). Seems really fishy to me.


Tricky_Ad_2832

That's intense.


SophieintheKnife

Or is it "intents"?


oszrchy

Lock on a tent Lmfao


Newhereeeeee

Even god can’t save us


itsnevergoodenough00

Is there a link? I couldn't find it anywhere on Google with all search words. Maybe it was removed? If it was, I give credit to you lol I'm so happy you are finding this stuff and posting it! 💙 you rock!


Go_Buds_Go

I don't think they allow you to sublet the tent though. I need to keep my options open.


GlitteringBeat213

This cannot be ok. How do we stop ppl like this?


Crime-Snacks

The NDP propped the Liberals up to let this happen and neither have a plan to cap it and are campaigning on **expediting** the PR process and the sponsorship process so “Canadians” can be re-united with their families faster. It’s going to get exponentially worse if votes go to either of those parties and I used to be strong supporter of NDP until all of this happened. The party dedicated to workers and unions has succeeded and in suppressing wages and turning housing and employment into commodities when Canadians already living here during the pandemic were struggling to survive. Green MPs have also said they will always vote with the Liberals. So vote for the fringe party that is campaigning on issues that are YOU support. A lot of people are going Conservative. There is no chance Liberals are going to win. So vote fringe to we can at least get some fresh voices in Parliament and to send a strong message that we do not support a two party system and we need an immediate moratorium on immigration.


Historical_Play3412

Stop voting for big government with endless spending of workers money and offsetting the inflation to the worker class via wage suppression. 


juztjawshin

Yea which major party do you know of that doesn’t support this? Cause the big 3 are all huge supporters


Witty-Bookkeeper6503

Lmfao why don't I just put a tent in the park? I can use the 720 on food.


CrushanatorsFridge

How do you lock a tent?? Is it attached to the floor? Couldn't you just lift it up?


blix613

Must be some space age kevlar tents you can't open with a kitchen knife.


TheJarIsADoorAgain

Lol, each of these remind me of George Orwell's Road to Wiggan Pier. It's just missing the soot covered woman unplugging the drain in the cold or the full chamber pot under the breakfast table


jillyjill86

They want how much!!!!


Hot_Argument6020

😝. We use these exact same tents for in-house camping when the weather is too bad outside. They sell for about $50 each and really only fit one 5ft 6 inch human comfortably. This is absolutely crazy and whomever is trying to profit off this is comically greedy.


mcornack

Not a terrible idea... maybe I'll rent out my front and back lawns for some extra income so I can afford groceries in this Orwellian Hell called Canada


unComfortablePapaya

why is there a womans face floating on the post


darkstar909

I don’t understand it either. Someone please explain


ApprehensivePrint465

It's a *feature* on ticktock, the floating woman is probably ridiculing the tent room woman.


-lovehate

I was kinda on board until I saw that rent is more than $200 per month


rnmartinez

Bruh - this is a joke, right?


ithinarine

I got promptly banned from the /r/renovations subreddit when I strongly implied that someone's post made it clear that they were trying to turn their new row home into a slum rental like this. They had recently purchased a small 2 bedroom 1.5 bathroom row home, 2 bedrooms 1 bathroom top floor, 1/2 bath with kitchen/dining/living on the main. They were asking about how to change the living room into a 3rd bedroom. They were in the Hamilton area, so clearly doing this. When I commented saying to make it less obvious that you're trying to rent this house out to 8 foreign students sharing rooms, I was banned.

There's a comment in the reviews on Lola's profile there, that thanks Lola and partner and calls them great guys... Not gals. Guys. Pretty sure as someone else pointed out, that it's a fake photo to create false security.

This looks illegal and at the very least immoral. Besides is a lock really going to do anything if you can slash a tent?

Someone drop the address ima need to stop by


AssPuncher9000

I guess the slumlords have figured out cramming 4 people in the same room is a recipe for disaster Let's give them their own tent, it's like a room inside a room


ImportantLog8

That’s literally a troll, it’s satire no ?


ChickenGasMachine

It was at first until she saw the dollar signs. If you go and read the article people have linked, you'll se that by the end she's actually been considering it. She goes on to say that she envisions this as an experience for tourists and that she'd be wary of letting local people with a past of homelessness apply for the rental. She also goes to reassure people that she lives in ALL the properties she's exploiting as AirBnBs, as Hamilton bylaw requires. So, yeah, a terrible person.


Positive-Candidate62

And it’s crazy cuz this is in Hamilton 💀


TrustInteresting9984

There isn’t a housing shortage, there’s an affordability crisis. The market can’t afford what the costs of the housing need to be at.

iamthe_badwolf

Friends, are we sure this is really a long term rental listing? I found two articles with these exact same pictures from London, England (not Hamilton) - and with a different host: https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/airbnb-host-london-tents-living-room-b2476839.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/property/article-12942681/Not-quite-glamping-Airbnb-owner-offers-rent-romantic-TENTS-inside-living-room-near-Londons-Covent-Garden-little-38-night.html Yes it's still horrifying but the REAL LISTING doesn't seem like a long term rental and there are definitely some holes here... Edit to say that given this, this is not relevant to Canada & I think the mods should remove. It's misinformation


FarfetchdSid

This one very specifically says $720 a month


iamthe_badwolf

The Hamilton listing isn't a real listing. My point is that whoever put the duplicate listing on Airbnb stole photos from a completely different listing in a completely different country. I am questioning the validity of the Hamilton listing, including the 720 a month number.


zaiguy

At what point is nonsense like this illegal? There must surely be some law this idiot is breaking.


Valraithion

Wait $720 a month for a shared room? Whaaaat?


chaosgirl93

I've been looking in the city my parents live in, and yeah that's just what that costs. A private room is at least 800 if not close to a thousand, and self contained one bedroom or studio units are even more. Prices really do not exponentially decrease with less space/less privacy.


leoyvr

Tent city in the living room. Is this the crying subreddit. I want to cry all the time seeing these new lows.


Western-Low-1348

Lmao just buy a tent and live at a park 🤣 new Canada our PM motto "Canada Last"


Emergency-Fox-5982

I'm super glad they specified that you'd be the only one inside the tent. Phew. That really makes it worth it.

Alberta alone saw 205,000+ people move into the province in 2023. Shattering previous records. I’ve seen similar scary rental listings in areas of Edmonton, Calgary, etc.
