Being a former resident of Ottawa Carleton I am aware of this criteria. Having been fortunate not to be in this situation myself, I do however feel that yes rents to lower income families should be based upon the NET not Gross incomes. Perhaps if this criteria is changed, then those who take pride in the fact that they are making a solid effort to work will continue to do so, thereby reducing the growing numbers tapping into the welfare system and depleting the economy. Give credit to those low income workers who are making a concentrated effort and contribution, DO NOT penalize them.
