Our mission is to educate and inform fellow residents and students on their housing rights, and to establish a narrative on the precarious living standards that are experienced across the GTA.

Hi Everyone! I hope you're all well and enjoying some warmth as we begin winter this year. I wanted to share some great news I've learned about recently. There's been an Action Item adopted by the Planning and Housing Committee in the City of Toronto on December 8, 2020 regarding Affordable Student Housing! I really encourage you all to take a read (2-3 mins).... In sum, the action led by Councillor John Filion that was adopted directed the Committee and the City to find ways to "co-operatively to ensure an adequate supply of safe and legal housing for students, and to report back to the Planning and Housing Committee on the outcome of those discussions." For more information, be sure to check-out this link: http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do For background details regarding the meeting, click here: http://www.toronto.ca//2/ph/bgrd/backgroundfile-159238.pdf This is huge in conjunction with the City's push towards Municipal Licensing for Rooming Houses in the City of Toronto. Not only will the city be adopting a more interventionist stance on Rooming Houses, but it's making sure that we as tenants are able to hold both the City of Toronto and our Landlords to account! I'll be sure to update y'all on any progress! In cooperation and solidarity, Nathi Zamisa.
