I'm an enthusiastic supporter of the right to housing. I think that's key to eliminating homelessness in Canada. I supported and lobbied for the creation of the National Housing Strategy Act. Now the challenge with the act is that it applies only to the jurisdiction of Parliament, so it doesn't yet apply to provinces or territories. In terms of this particular issue, I think that if it applied to provincial legislation in particular, it would mean that tenants should not be evicted simply to increase the rent. It would mean that they would have security of tenure.
