Renting and BS

After a trying search, Jacob Butula has finally found a place to rent in Vancouver. But the apartment on the top floor of a house is far from ideal. Only a sheet separates his room from the living room that he will soon share with three roommates.
One roommate has promised to build him a makeshift wooden wall to replace the sheet. But it still means everyone living there will have easy access to his room.
"I hope I can trust these people with my stuff when I'm gone because they can just pull the wood [wall] aside and enter my room if they feel like it," says the 30-year-old Butula
"It's a sacrifice I'm making for affordable rent," he adds, as he moves to Vancouver to finish a master's degree in counselling psychology and complete his practicum.
For now, he believes a temporary wall may be as good as it gets with his $750 a month rent limit.

As for Butula, all he wanted was to rent a room in a house.
But he found even that was a challenge. "It's a little ridiculous," he says.
When he started his search, he says he answered more than 30 online rental ads and had only two responses.
He also posted his own ad, which led to just two more responses. And by the time the grad student had taken the ferry from his current home in Victoria to Vancouver, he discovered the first rental he had booked to see had already been snapped up.
The second place he saw didn't pan out either. The first thing the landlord did was hand him a page-long list of house rules that included no overnight guests.
"At this point, I'm like, this is too weird for me. I'm out, thank you." He also gave up on the third location because the landlady suggested he couldn't have guests for at least the first two months.
So when Butula finally scored the room with a makeshift wall, he decided "it's good enough and I'll make it work."

Roundabout Construction Concerns Winnipeg Woman

Nancy Ellen Noren lives nearby and says the roundabout, which is replacing the current four-way stop, comes as a surprise to residents in the area.
