  1. People living on the Toronto Islands have a sweet deal, with below typical housing costs. Houses were initially built to address housing shortages after WWII, then it was decided that the city wanted the land back and the fights ensued. Eventually, a 99-yr lease agreement was made and these folk have the best of city and small-town life.
