    It’s a retirement residence, and from their site it looks like housekeeping and meals are included in the price. They also have packages including nursing care which are much more expensive. The article says one lady was paying $4,700 a month and is now expected to pay $7,000.

    The reason they can jack the price up is because they’re claiming the fee increases are from the housekeeping, meals, staff, etc. Not the actual rent, which has increases limited by law.

      This is pretty crazy. If they are making those claims they should prove in court that there was a proportional increase (60% salary increase, 60% increase in supply cost)
