actually, that doesn't necessarily hold true.
in most places, the rental boards sets out conditions that landlords must follow. and they cannot discriminate.
for example, in montreal, everything he said the landlord is doing is illegal. you can't forbid kids, spouses, smoking or pets any more than you can forbid asians or lesbians etc.
the problem is, there's very little you can do about it. you're not entitled to the appartment and he can very well rent it out to someone who fits his "rules". and unless you can prove that he goes by these "rules", you're up shit creek without a paddle.
