Struggling with $5000 Upfront Rent Deposit in Toronto

I really can’t afford the first and last month's rent deposit—it’s way too much! $4000-$5000 upfront feels impossible, and I’m stressed about finding alternatives. Are there any payment plans, deposit assistance programs, or tips for saving up that can help me out?
