And I don't see the new mayor causing any developments to slow down. Replacing rentals being demoltioned with new ones will address the issue. Frankly this is how it should've been all along.

Only problem is that the new "affordable" rental apartments would never be as cheap as the ones being knocked down, so tenants would still be crying foul. There is no way spanking new buildings can offer rental fees that equate those of the rundown buildings, unless some kind of subsidized housing system is in place, which should not be encouraged.
With that said, I still feel that people should not be so entitled to cheap housing, but know that they need to work even harder to afford living in better neighbourhoods, especially when they have been given the opportunity to be close to so many amenities for so long when many others are less unfortunate and have to commute long distances. Entitlement is a disease in this part of the world.
