Travellers under 25 face Airbnb restrictions in Canada


Some people are known to rent entire homes on home-sharing platforms like Airbnb to hold wild parties, like the one shown in this scene from the 2012 movie, Project X.

People under 25 will no longer be able to rent local listings for entire homes on Airbnb in Canada, the company announced recently after a fatal shooting at a Toronto apartment booked through the website.

The restriction will apply only to homes young Airbnb users attempt to rent within the communities where they already live.
