🚨 WE HAVE GOOD NEWS TO SHARE! 🚨 On April 18th, City Council voted to pass motions that would help address key tenant issues that No Demovictions has been advocating for over a year, including improved tenant compensation. 👉 Read the details now: loom.ly/mnRdfS8 👈
.@ccpa attributed Ontario's soaring rent prices to loopholes in rent control rules, which exempt new buildings from rent control guidelines, allow landlords to charge new tenants whatever they want for vacant units and leave room for AGI abuses. thestar.com/real-estate/to…
".@ACORNCanada has called on [Ontario] to introduce full rent control to all buildings regardless of their age, vacancy control to regulate rent increases between tenants, & ban above-guideline increases that circumvent existing rent control measures.” thespec.com/news/hamilton-…
#TOPoli #Airbnb Toronto Council today significantly tightened enforcement of our short-term rental bylaws. Thx to staff & Council, esp by @CarletonGrant and @gordperks for your persistence & leadership. Major steps forward &more to come. A layperson's🧵 secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda…
"Although tenants can dispute an AGI at the LTB, the vast majority pass. Reviewing 2,253 completed AGIs released by the LTB — both provincially since 2017 and in the Toronto area since 2010 — CBC News found that 1,978, or 88%, were granted." — @Alowishoes cbc.ca/news/investiga…
There it is. Let's remember, evictions are traumatic, can ruin lives and can easily result in homelessness - especially when there's nowhere affordable to go. So, why do govts entrust solving the housing crisis to an industry that is helping to create it?

Toronto Council meets today! Their agenda includes the vacant home tax, parking tickets, the vacant home tax, Airbnb regulation, and the vacant home tax. Did I mention the vacant home tax? Streaming live here. I will tweet happenings. youtube.com/watch?v=KORc6_…
Encampments in Toronto have more than doubled since last spring, per city hall data. However, data may not fully capture the issue, as some tents remain hidden or uncounted. Despite limitations in data, the trend is clear: homelessness is intensifying. thestar.com/real-estate/it…
As of today (April 15), the @cityoftoronto's winter #homeless programs, including warming centres and extended hours at select drop-ins, have ended. I've updated the Toronto Homeless Resource List (which I maintain on my own time for free) to reflect this: docs.google.com/document/d/1-l…
It's time for real rent control. This Sunday April 14 at 2pm, join @YSWtenants to demand for real rent regulation. The march will depart from 1440 Lawrence Ave West (Keele and Lawrence W) and will return to 1440 Lawrence Ave W. Details: tenantunion.ca/marchagainstag…

This is an important meeting at noon today at City Hall. #Demovictions, like #Renovictions, are a huge disability issue! Disabled residents are disproportionately victimized by unjust eviction and displacement from their homes! Thanks @nodemovictions! #Right2Housing #Topoli
📢TODAY! Join @nodemovictions at Toronto City Hall to back crucial motions that, if passed, could help protect demovicted tenants & make developers more accountable to upholding Toronto's long-term rental housing stock. More info: nodemovictions.ca/events
This is also a human right issue. Vulnerable communities must have true agency and access regarding data collection on issues central to their wellbeing- income, housing, health, employment and more. How else will they be included in policy solutions? #DataDemocracy @wellesleyWI
We agree! Disability communities, for example, are so shut out of data collection in Canada, they should be among populations prioritized in this culture shift to communities owning their data. Thanks for this piece @wellesleyWI. #DataDemocracy #Canpoli wellesleyinstitute.com/race-based-dat…
