Is Your Landlord Threatening to Evict You During the Coronavirus Pandemic? We Want to Talk to You.
We're investigating Canadian landlords that are putting tenants in a tough spot during the coronavirus pandemic
As the world grapples with the global coronavirus pandemic
, Canadians are being asked to reduce social contact as much as possible and stay away from work
if they’re experiencing any symptoms.
That’s putting some workers who live paycheque-to-paycheque in a tight squeeze, especially if they do not receive paid sick leave or work precarious contract jobs.
Housing advocates are now calling for a ban on evictions during the pandemic to make sure no Canadian loses their home in the middle of this emergency.
Get in touch with us:
- If your landlord is threatening to evict you in the middle of the emergency;
- If your landlord is increasing rent, asking for advance payments or refuses to make any accommodations because you’re sick or you just lost your job;
- If you recently received letters or e-mails from a landlord or property manager making unreasonable requests relating to the coronavirus pandemic.
