NDP Housing Critic and Vancouver MP Jenny Kwan is travelling in Ontario calling for the federal government to bring in a moratorium on the acquisition of housing by corporate landlords, and to close tax loopholes associated with Real Estate Investment Trusts .
Some tenants in the neighbourhood say they are struggling, from having to cope with a lack of maintenance to dealing with months-long bug infestations. “We’re human beings here. We’re not empty investments here that they can take their time in fixing,” Regan said.He said he knows tenants forced out of rental units who became homeless.
