How expensive is property in Canada?

Yes, month-by-month is the standard lease arrangement. If you have a written lease agreement, it will state that a full month's rent will be due on the first of the month and will cover the entire month. Sometimes apartments will allow you to move in or out on a day other than the first of the month, but you have to set that up beforehand.

It's fair. Put yourself in the landlord's shoes. People plan on moving in on the first of the month.

Why should your landlord eat three weeks of rent just because you want to move out after a week?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
