As more and more data points to the ways that #renters are being targeted by landlords, this news on above-guideline rent increases (#AGIs) is unfortunately no surprise. There is currently BSH research on AGIs in Toronto and Vancouver (report forthcoming) cbc.ca/news/investiga…
Renters are one of the most vulnerable groups in #housing. In our research, we've seen that bad-faith #evictions are rising in ON, and renters are being displaced into some of the most $$$ markets in Canada. Stay tuned for an upcoming report on #FillingtheGaps in Toronto.

@StatCan_eng has just released a new report on evictions in Canada, which shows that #evictions are on the rise. Mirroring BSH research, evictions for sale, landlord-use or renovation are now the top reason for eviction, not non-payment of rent. www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quoti…
If we had a With Cause rule that eliminated these things as grounds for eviction, we could immediately cut evictions by more than half.

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?

The 2024 Federal Budget has some big wins when it comes to #housing. We’ve broken it down into the Great, the Good and Missed the mark. Great: gov is allocating lots of federal land, providing #infrastructure $$ to communities, and leveraging funding for more progressive policy.
We're getting ready for #Budget2024 today and looking forward to new housing measures. We're proud to have had a role advocating for better gov land use policy, measurements of housing need, and a fed acquisitions program, but there's still much to do. Watch this space!👀
