We see this all the time in commercial leasing too. Commercial mortgages can be considerably less than rent - but banks rarely qualify small business owners. The result is businesses paying more to landlords instead of investing in local economy & good jobs.

4K Followers 2K Following The National Partnership for Women & Families provides news, data and resources to allies and supporters of the national paid sick days movement.We need fairness in commercial renting to energize Canada's lagging small business community. Sensible regulations & property ownership opportunities will level the playing field. Want your favourite cafe to stay in your neighbourhood? This is how - Commercialrent.ca
Aside from making it easier for business owners to acquire their space- we need regulations for renters that don't want to own a property: - Rent Increase Caps - Standard Leases - Out-of-court dispute resolution These are the basics every commercial renter should have.
We know that investors and large corporations continue to buy massive amounts of commercial property across Canada. We need to balance the playing field with business owners that want to invest in their local communities. Property ownership is just one part of the solution.
If commercial rents drop, so does the land value. For a speculative investor, that's a worst case scenario - especially if they want to sell to a developer 5-15 years down the road. So while they're waiting for this to happen, they set a high rent and wait for a corpo to rent.
Unlike Residential renters in Ontario (pre 2018 construction), commercial rent can and often does go up by double-digit percentages during lease renewals. Ever wonder why your favourite restaurant or cafe might have to move every 5 years? The rent keeps getting jacked WAY UP.
Over the last 10 years, more commercial properties have been bought by speculative investors. They're happy to push out a local business to hire a chain. But properties can sit vacant for months & years before being rented. Why? Commercial rents are NEVER allowed to go down.
Landlords in Toronto raised retail rents 32% on average between 2022 - 2023 creating significant financial challenges and a major power imbalance for commercial renters. It's time for brick and mortar business owners to take the power back. 🧵TIME 🧵

Our @BetterWayCAN proposal suggests the BDC could act as a guarantor for business owners looking to buy their properties. This would help businesses control costs and stabilize their operating environment without the fear of unpredictable rent increases.
On May 4 there's a Jane's Walk about late night food options on the stretch of Yonge Street from North York Centre to Finch. A wonderful stretch dominated by East Asian chains, indie spots, bars, cafes, grocers, most of which are open well into the night. janeswalkfestivalto.com/4-may/late-nig…
I was happy to go on the @readthepeak's podcast, Free Lunch, to talk about my new report 'Billionaire Blindspot' socialcapitalpartners.ca/scpreports

This is the right plan for Canada. Fairness for every generation. Including on taxes. Capital gains change will affect me. But I accept it for the greater good in our country so we can get done what's needed on housing, school food, etc. and remember the 1% are louder than…

And I just wanna add — people getting mad at us because we don’t wanna stay in Utah is wild. Of course we’re going to stay in cities that actually have something to do. You only have one life to live — why would you live in Utah? Or Alabama? Or Oklahoma?
This isn't looking good for Canada. Sadly, this wedge will just get deeper as long as land is the primary wealth capture vehicle that's taxed less than work. Land value tax levels the playing field so no one group is advantaged over another.
Great piece by @JimboStanford pointing to some tools progressive administrations in cities like #Toronto can and must use to address the inequities associated with the growth of platform-based sweat shop work. #TOpoli #Uber thestar.com/business/opini…
We see this all the time in commercial leasing too. Commercial mortgages can be considerably less than rent - but banks rarely qualify small business owners. The result is businesses paying more to landlords instead of investing in local economy & good jobs.

Land trusts like @KMCLandTrust are just another example of how nonprofits across Ontario are prioritizing the needs of their diverse communities by putting community and affordability over profit. The value of the nonprofit difference is clear! ⬇️ thestar.com/business/non-p…
