"There needs to be a larger strategy to combat renoviction profit-seeking by landlords. A large part of that comes from tenants getting organized and pushing back. We are under threat of losing our homes right now, we can’t wait until the next federal election," Power said.

By establishing a co-op, we will protect our home and create new affordable housing in #HamOnt. We're calling on our landlord Andrew Robertson to negotiate with us on a fair market price!
The tenants who want to buy their Hamilton apartment and form a co-op have hit an impasse in negotiations amid allegations expensive repairs will soon be needed. trib.al/9NiBYlV

@CHCHNews @jake_sisko @MattIngramNEWS I’ve lived in a housing cooperative for the past 26 years. Our housing costs are half of the market rent in our neighborhood, and we’re safe from reno-viction, greedy rent hikes, property sell, and poor building maintenance. Caroline Street Co-op has a ring to it! @CHFCanada
This is a fantastic initiative with the assistance of @CameronKroetsch - I'm looking forward to hearing how tax dollars can be leveraged to help residents take a hostile housing market into their own hands!
Amid the housing/affordability crisis, residents of 272 Caroline St S are forming a co-op and purchasing the building in order to protect themselves from rent hikes or redevelopment. @cityofhamilton will consider @CameronKroetsch motion to contribute funds to help. @CHCHNews
Thanks to the incredible work of tenants at 272 Caroline Street South, I'll be putting forward a motion today to contribute $84k in area rating funds to help them create 21 units of deeply affordable housing in Ward 2. 💜 #HamOnt @alexwilson96
