A report by @NbTenants shows that Fredericton lost 4.2 affordable units a week from 2016-2021.

Extend the Rent Cap in NB: Rally on Saturday November 26th at the Leg in Fredericton. In 2022 GNB recognized the housing crisis and capped rental increases at 3.8%, but this cap is scheduled to end in 2023. The housing crisis is not over! #extendtherentcap
New from me: strong reaction from tenants' rights advocates to GNB announcement of the end of the rent cap.
