The FMTA (Federation of Metro Tenants’ Association) has initiated a petition for the Government of Ontario to ban all evictions. Details are below:
Petition: We Need A Real Eviction Ban Now
Yesterday, the Provincial government announced they have temporarily suspended evictions.
We know that many tenants in Ontario are struggling and wanted you to know as soon as possible to help reduce stress and worry.
Unfortunately, the ban is not a complete one – landlords can still give eviction notices, while the Landlord and Tenant Board will continue to hold hearings and issue eviction orders.
Evictions spread COVID. Unless we get a real eviction ban and rent relief for tenants, people will continue to be evicted and COVID will continue to kill.
Please sign our petition calling on the government to implement a real eviction ban. Lives are at stake.
