I just had a thought: think of all the "illegal suites", aka "secondary suites" or "basement suites". How would you pay rent in that situation? Can you pay rent in that situation? Is the CBDC going to be useful?

The price of rent is already pretty high, but forcing homeowners to register their suites and submit to inspections and taxation will no doubt increase the cost of rent. There will, therefore, be more people in a single rental and/or homelessness will increase.
