Skyrocketing Hotel Prices Hit Taylor Swift Fans in Canada

Fans face exorbitant accommodation costs as Taylor Swift's tour arrives in Toronto and Vancouver.

Hotel prices in Toronto and Vancouver have surged up to ten times their usual rates during Taylor Swift's concert dates.
Swift fans are resorting to selling their concert tickets or bartering them for accommodation due to the high costs.
Economists attribute the price surge to increased demand, while consumer advocates criticize the lack of price regulation.
Some fans are finding creative solutions, such as swapping tickets for stays at fellow fans' homes.
Consumer protection laws in Canada do not clearly define price gouging, complicating regulatory responses.
