Toronto Today: Prolific ‘renovictor’ insists there’s no such thing

Posted January 8, 2025

On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: Ontario’s biggest “renovictor” finally speaks out.

Earlier this year, Village Media reporters at GuelphToday and CambridgeToday told the story of Michael Klein, a Toronto businessman linked to hundreds of “renovictions” across the province. Multiple companies linked to Klein have purchased apartment buildings in different cities, mass-evicted longtime tenants in order to renovate, then rented the units to someone else at a much higher price.
In a follow-up story published by TorontoToday, reporter Gabe Oatley caught up with Klein — who insists he follows all Ontario laws. “There’s no such thing as renoviction,” he said. Oatley is our guest on tonight’s ‘Closer Look.’ You can read his coverage HERE.
