Common Tenant Problems - Renoviction

This section is for discussing Renoviction (eviction for the purpose of renovating the building that tenants are currently living in.)

In addition to this forum there are some terrific information resources available on this topic:

• The RenovictionsTO website has a lot of helpful information regarding renoviction, including a brief overview: "Renovictions: The Basics" to get you up to speed, a guide to Your Rights, and a Renoviction Tracker that we would strongly recommend any tenants facing renoviction to should sign up with.

• From the Federation of Metro Tenants' Associations: Demolitions, Conversions, Renovations and the Residential Tenancies Act.

• From Community Legal Education Ontario (CLEO), Can my landlord make me move out for repairs or renovations?, and perhaps most importantly: Protect your right to move back in later!

From CTVNews today:

New report reveals 'landlord playbook' on renovictions in Toronto

Quote
A new report issued by a Toronto tenant advocacy group is detailing “the landlord’s playbook” on renovictions – a term used to describe the practice of evicting a tenant with the intention to renovate a unit – and providing guidance for tenants facing similar scenarios.

I support and welcome the general idea of taking a stand and sharing research etc., but it would be a lot nicer if “RenovictionsTO” had a posted *privacy policy*. Ergo don't be like these landlords and city councillors who think they are somehow exempt from common sense.

Just as an example, on their Report page (renovictionsto.com/report) they are asking a lot of stuff... but there isn't much of an About page or Contact information etc. No testimonials or endorsements? Just saying.  :)

Related: there was a rare mention of renovictions alongside a Tory policy... er, statement by the minister last week. See this Canadian Press item - www.thestar.com/politics/2023/04/05/ontario-to-beef-up-tenant-protections-housing-minister-says.html
