@CMHC_ca Fact: a one-time $500 payment will not even cover 1/2 a month's rent for most low-income renters. So what do they do next month when their rent is still more than 50% of their income?
@JennieWordenTO The Government recently introduced a number of measures to make life more affordable for low-income Canadians, including doubling GST credits for six months and the Canada Dental Benefit.
@JennieWordenTO Additional rental assistance may also be available at the provincial, territorial, and municipal level.
