DREAM Unlimited (DRM-T) is the company in question (Dundee Real Estate Asset Management). They are the head corporation that provides management services under MSA contracts to their sub-advised companies, DREAM Industrial REIT (DIR.un-T), DREAM Office REIT (D.un-T), and probably the actual company in question, DREAM Residential REIT (DRR.un).
There are many, many REITs (real estate investment trusts) in Canada, public and private, and what makes them a fairly good investment is that they absolutely relentlessly fuck the renter class. They need to be banned or have returns regulated, like utility companies.
Why bring Galeb Weston into this, lots of middle class people are invested into REITs. My best friend talks about his investment in them all the time. Hell, there’s a half decent chance my RRSP and my kids RESPs are invested in REITs as part of the broader fund they are part of.
The 2008 Stock Market crash is a good lesson in this, they bundled subprime loans and turned them into securities which made it into mutual funds, pension funds and generally securities held by corporations.
You missed the point of my post, which was why call out Galen Weston specifically when probably the majority of people, included many middle class people, are invested in REITs one way or another? Like, is it somehow bad that Galen Weston does it but not bad that my best friend ans I do it?
Holding a reit as an investmenr and creating the ecosystem for hiking rent prices by monopolizing ownerahip are not the same thing. I, for moral reasons, do not hold reits because I see what the companies are doing and its’ effects.

Guess who else has an REIT.
That’s right, Galen Weston.
He is fucking you more than piper Perri in a gangbang.
