Affording a mobile home is not a tiny problem

I did sign the petition. I must pay taxes on the land I rent. My rent is going up to $1,050 come October.

The kicker is, is that I actually own my home 100 per cent. Because we have no rent control in Alberta for mobile homeowners we are messed up.

So why would I spend my hard earned dollar on someone else when I now live below the poverty line and can't make ends meet.

The proposed rents (Tiny Homes) are ridiculously low, I bought because it was supposed to be affordable housing for me as a single taxpayer.

Guess what? Not anymore?
