minus-square@reddig33@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink18•10 months agoIs the owner of the property living there more than 51% of the year? If not, then it’s a hotel, not a BNB. Tax and regulate it as such. Zoning laws prohibit hotels in neighborhoods for example.
minus-square@ttmrichter@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink16•10 months agoJust ban AirBNB and other such bullshit companies from operating in Canada.
