Toronto's new renoviction bylaw forces landlords to prove renovations are necessary before evicting tenants.
Supporters say it protects renters from being pushed out illegally. Landlords say it's a bureaucratic mess that discourages building upgrades and will ultimately lead to higher rents. But, we're not just focusing on Toronto. Cities across Canada, like New Westminster, B.C., Hamilton and London all have renoviction by-laws in motion or in place. So wherever you are in Canada, this issue may affect you.
Our question: Are renoviction bylaws a step too far or not far enough?
