more on vacation rentals

The first Vacation Rental I can recall was on Chesterman's Beach.....sometime around 1980.......nobody really gave it much thought........in 1996 the big issue was Bed and Breakfast.....I lost the election to Scott Fraser who ran on the Bed and Breakfast ticket......nobody seems to think Bed and Breakfast is an issue anymore...perhaps because it's provincially regulated......I think......does anyone have an idea as to how to to deal with the issue of Vacation Rentals ??
