TENANTS ALLEGEDLY EVICTED OVER AC USAGE

Libby Znaimer is joined by NDP MPP Bhutila Karpoche (Parkdale-High Park), Councillor Paula Fletcher (Ward 14 Toronto-Danforth) and Dania Majid, Staff lawyer at Advocacy Centre for Tenants Ontario.

In the news: residents of 130 Jameson, an apartment building in Parkdale, say they've received eviction notices over their air conditioning usage. MPP Karpoche raised concerns about this over social media. She said that many leases forbid the use of AC.

The City has already experienced multiple heat waves this summer and it leaves vulnerable residents like the elderly especially in danger. So, what exactly are tenants rights here, and what are the rules around AC usage. And, can we expect the province to step in like it did with long-term care homes to mandate AC requirements? Our panel discusses the latest.
