The first half I outlined in my first five minutes. There were precedents set back in the mid-1970s regarding the federal government's role in inciting rent control from the provinces, so you could look to mechanisms that have been used previously to help get a rent control regime across the country.
Moving to the renoviction phenomenon, this is something that is actually very near and dear to my province, New Brunswick, where we see tenants en masse being renovicted from buildings. The issue of renovation can be a tactic used by corporations to increase profits, so they're purchasing affordable units and affordable housing, then renovicting tenants to reposition the housing on the market for higher income levels. This is depleting the affordable housing that we have left, and it's been contributing to the housing crisis across the country.
Currently, in most jurisdictions, there's a lack of regulation regarding rent control and renoviction. They go hand in hand—without rent control and vacancy control, it's an easier environment for large investors such as REITs to renovict tenants. They outline within their shareholder reports that they use renovations as a mechanism to increase their profits, therefore they're evicting tenants through those means.
Does that answer your question?
