> Montreal probably has the most restrictive rent control in Canada but it's also seeing the strongest apartment development growth

A wonderful city like Montreal can drive enough demand for housing to overcome red tape, and still be building far far less than what would satisfy demand. A less attribute city with lower demand for housing may build less due to lower demand, despite having less red tape.

Trust the economists on this one.
