We let them know that predatory landlords and bad actors are constantly exploiting the usage of N13s (notice of eviction due to renovations) in order to make major profits! This was passed unanimously with amendments (suggested by Don Valley Community Legal Services) to delete the exemption where an Owner or Operator may conduct repairs or renovations on a Tenant&#8217;s Rental Unit without a license where the repairs or renovations are required to address an emergency health and safety issue (which landlords can also nefariously exploit!) This was not in the Hamilton bylaw, and shouldn&#8217;t be included in the Toronto bylaw. Today was a MAJOR step forward, but we still need to pass it in Council! Stay tuned.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15598\" src=\"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"389\" height=\"292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image2-2-1.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 389px) 100vw, 389px\" \/> \u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15599\" style=\"font-family: inherit;\" src=\"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"anti-renoviction\" width=\"395\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/image0-1-1.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15600,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","front_page_slider":[],"campaigns":[62],"featured_news":[],"class_list":["post-15597","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","campaigns-housing-tenant-unions"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/15597"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"front_page_slider","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/front_page_slider?post=15597"},{"taxonomy":"campaigns","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/campaigns?post=15597"},{"taxonomy":"featured_news","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/acorncanada.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/featured_news?post=15597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
