๐Ÿšจ BREAKING: Bill 60 has dropped and Ontario landlords are BUZZING! ๐Ÿšจ

After years of advocacy, the Ford government has finally released the first reading of Bill 60โ€”a game-changing overhaul to the RTA that could reshape landlord-tenant relations in Ontario. Kevin Breitner, Rob Di Lisi, and Kayla Andrade break down EVERY major change: N12 reforms, N4 notice reductions, Section 82 deposit requirements, faster review timelines, and the HUGE controversy around security of tenure removal.

โš–๏ธ In This Episode:
๐Ÿ“‹ N12 Changes - 120 days notice with NO compensation (but tenants can still challenge)
โšก N4 Notice Period - Cut from 14 days to 7 days (but still need LTB hearing)
๐Ÿ’ฐ Section 82 Reform - Tenants must pay 50% of arrears to delay with maintenance issues
โฑ๏ธ Review Applications - Shortened to 15 days for faster resolutions
๐Ÿ  Security of Tenure Removal - The BIG ONE that has tenant unions SCREAMING (and why Rob actually disagrees with removing it)
๐Ÿ‘ฎ Enforcement Boost - 8 new sheriffs to speed up evictions
๐Ÿค– AI Integration - Faster LTB order processing on the horizon
๐Ÿ“Š Public Transparency - Final LTB decisions may become searchable

โš ๏ธ REALITY CHECK:
This is ONLY first reading, folks. Bill 60 still needs to pass second reading, third reading, and receive royal assent. The tenant unions and NDP are already mobilizing hard against this. Kayla breaks down why landlords need to get LOUD with their MPPs RIGHT NOW to see this through.
