Peel Know Your RIGHTS Workshop
Posted March 19, 2026
On the evening of March 19, a dozen tenants joined Peel ACORN’s Tenant Rights Workshop on Zoom, a small but mighty group ready to learn more about their rights and how to stand up to landlord abuses.
The workshop was led by Tanya Burkart (Brampton ACORN), who guided participants through key tenant protections, common landlord tactics, and steps tenants can take when their rights are being violated. The session was packed with practical tools and useful information to help members navigate challenging situations with landlords.
A big thank you to Tanya Burkart for facilitating such an engaging and empowering workshop. Workshops like this are part of ACORN’s ongoing work to ensure tenants know their rights and feel confident organizing for better housing in their communities.
Thank you to everyone who joined!
