Calgary city council approves new rules to regulate short-term rentals in the city.

The new rules include a new licensing system and a freeze on licences for licences when vacancy rates are low.

Under the new rules, companies such as Airbnb and Vrbo will be required to pay a $ 3,000 yearly fee to operate in Calgary .

The rules were influenced by a two-year study by the city and University of Calgary researchers.
