211 York is currently in a power of sale and 72 James in receivership.
ACORN is demanding #HamOnt fast track plans for an acquisition fund to support buildings for sale to become tenant, city or non-profit owned. We need to get profit out of housing and protect #affordablehousing from financialized landlords.
