From Pittsburgh to Oakland, we're facing a nationwide crisis that's impacting renters, homeowners, and small landlords. Politicians know what they can do to help. It's time for them to take the necessary action -- pronto. post-gazette.com/business/money…

With May rent payments due, groups urge landlords to fend for renters who can't pay

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court moratorium on evictions is set to end May 11, and unless it is extended, many tenants who have lost their jobs for reasons...


A number of people need to know if they can break a lease because they are no longer employed due to covid . I can't get any answers. #yyccc #ableg #rentersrights


This is the harsh reality that the homeless live with. #ableg #housingisahumanright

This is not on. This is not how it’s supposed to work. This is not the sort of nation we think ourselves to be. Surely intervention against this type of cruelty is the remit of someone.

A politician who advocates for housing as a human right. #aboutime #AbLeg #rentersrights

If we can scramble to house folks in a cold snap, or in a pandemic, why can’t we at all other times? Housing is a human right. Going forward, let's act like it. #ableg #cdnpoli

@JanisIrwin B.C just announced that everyone on income support will be getting an extra 300$ a month. Is there any chance of this for Alberta with people on AISH like myself? Or income support? Like maybe a small chance, a tiny chance, an itsy, bitsy one?


Are there any provisions made for people who have to break their lease during the pandemic? @jkenney @RachelNotley @JanisIrwin #AbLeg #yyccc


Better JOB... hahaha.


Exemption of 2 meters for homeless. Exemption of giving a shit for the homeless. #AbLeg #nothingnew #notsurprised

THREAD: Nearly 1/3 of total Canadian households are renters. Yet proposed #COVID19 financial relief utterly fails to address looming issue of rent coming due. It’s good that evictions are suspended, but about half of renters live paycheque to paycheque. Arrears will crush us.
