Motion proposée par Marit Stiles le et rejetée au vote
Whereas there is a cost of living crisis in Ontario; and
Whereas the cost of rent has increased to more than 50% of the take-home income for many Ontario households; and
Whereas the removal of all rent control from homes first occupied after 2018 has exposed tenants to unaffordable double-digit rent increases; and
Whereas the ability to increase rent between tenancies accelerates the rising cost of rent and incentivizes illegal evictions; and
Whereas housing is a human right;
Therefore, the Legislative Assembly calls on the government to implement rent control on all units, including between tenancies.
