Tenants of 1094 College

Tenants fighting renoviction from our homes at 1094 College Street.

[Tenants of 1094 College @1094College]

So last year our building was bought by investor Dani Habbal, pictured below. He's been pushing tenants out by harassing us and refusing to fix anything in our units.

One of us decided to move on our own terms and put up some signs as a parting gift 😇

Thorncliffe Park tenants are calling on PSP Investments to withdraw the rent hikes.

"I just want to make sure that the investment company that owns the buildings realizes that these are people's lives that they're playing with," said Tricia-Ann Israel. https://t.co/k59G0AZDFm

BREAKING: PSP Investments has initiated the eviction process against tenants on rent strike at 71, 75, and 79 Thorncliffe Park Drive in Toronto.

Over 100 tenants are withholding rent to demand a withdrawal of the above guideline rent increase applications at their buildings.

Our report on renovictions in Toronto, co-authored by @colefwebber, is now available at https://t.co/Tkk6vuDxej

The report analyzes the conditions that give rise to renoviction, how landlords go about renovicting tenants and how tenants have organized in response to renoviction.

Last month, after Janice Walker’s mom died, her landlord, Myriad Property Mgmt., told Janice she had 30 days to get out. A rep said it was “company policy.” Then they pressured her for money she doesn’t have. Janice is fighting to stay in her home with the help of her neighbours.

Today our neighbours at 77 Spencer visited the office of @AkeliusCanada to demand the landlord drop its above guideline rent increase totaling 5.5% in 2023. After weeks of being ignored, tenants had no other option than to press their demand.

BREAKING: Kyle Pulis threatens organizing tenants with eviction and $50k fines.

In a letter from Kyle's lawyer, tenants organizing to keep their homes at 1570 Lawrence West are accused of "wrongful conduct" for interfering with Kyle's attempt to evict them and their neighbours.

Yesterday, tenants of 1570 Lawrence West brought their fight against renoviction to the home of landlord Kyle Pulis. Tenants visited Kyle to demand he withdraw the N13 eviction notices they’ve received.

[Cole Webber @colefwebber]

"fighting alongside my neighbours made me realize that I wanted to stay where I was, not only for “cheap rent” or whatever, but because I am a member of a community, of a place." — @RentSafeTO

[Parkdale Community Legal Services @ParkdaleLegal]

Evictions against tenants of 394 Dovercourt tenants dismissed!

"While our landlords have deep pockets, we have strength in numbers, and as long as we remain organized, I am confident we will stay in our homes, in our community."

After an entire building - 12 Lansdowne - received N13 eviction notices, posters started going up around the neighbourhood, putting local 'renovictors' Evan Johnsen & Neil Spiegel on notice.

Contact Evan & Neil and demand they drop the evictions: https://t.co/HBeItpXLFU

[Parkdale Organize @ParkdaleOrg]

12 Lansdowne tenants won't be fooled by the PR of notorious Parkdale renovictor Evan Johnsen.

We don't rely on crossed fingers and the feigned good will of landlords. We organize to build power and defend our homes.

“Deference to politicians and experts must be replaced with reliance on strength in numbers, and the intelligence and determination of working class neighbours engaged in collective struggle.”
