This is the best informational web page not only for East York tenants but for all tenants in Toronto. It is better than any provincial or muncipal tenants’ web site. Congratulations to the owners & builders. Hopefully, a lot of information will be provided about how the HST will affect tenants. The government is not providing any information. The premier couldn’t even bother to reply to a letter that I wrote to him.
