Toronto City Council passed a motion Wednesday aimed at stemming the tide of so-called renovictions – a practice where landlords boot tenants from a unit by saying they want to carry out renovations, only to then rent the unit out for a much higher price.
Olivia Chow speaks at a press conference ahead of a city council meeting Wednesday June 26, 2024, one year after being elected mayor of Toronto.
He said that with provincial rules which exempt new units from rent control, tenants who are booted for renovations often find they can't afford to continue living in their own communities. The bylaw will also be informed by consultations with stakeholders which will be held both virtually and in-person in the coming months.
