Someone bought a century home in Saint John and is allowing it to rot. The buyer apparently lives in Toronto and doesn't care that the building is falling apart.
This is shitty. Someone has the money for "an investment", which means other people don't get somewhere to live.
Took awhile to interpret what you meant here. I guess I never thought about it but by definition the noun landlord is tied up in some capacity with tenants paying a rent.
Intuitively, landlord sounds really simple. Lord being a ruler of a household and land in this context being a territory marked by political boundaries i.e 'someone's yard', you'd think they'd mash up easily to become 'Ruler of the house on the land' i.e landlord, but it's entirely more than that. In all definitions I've found it's tied into tenancy.
Kinda weird and I don't like it.
