I don't live in NY so I am curious. NY is one of the worst hit states in the country and had 8 months to prepare for this. What do you think went wrong? Is it local/state officials' colossal incompetence, something that they

GTA housing/rental market is beyond abysmal. A small 1bd costs you close to 2k CAD, and not to say the pay in tech here is much less than what you would get down in South.
