So when renting in Calgary becomes just as if not more expensive than Vancouver, will the government instate a rent increase cap?
Or will they just let us all suffer?
Fewer and fewer rentals under 1500 are avail.

Albertans: please put in a rent increase cap, we're struggling
UCP:

UCP: we need to control the prices of housing! But we will not;
- Invest in affordable building
- Put in rent caps
- Accept federal $ for housing builds
- Actually take any direct action beyond complaining about the carbon tax

Arguing with an idiot they shared this great graphic that shows rental rates have gone down exactly once since 1990.
But it's not that landlords are greedy....

If rent control doesn't pass I'm going to end up unhoused. I work full time. I have a good job that pays well. I went to college. I did everything I was told to, I've never been a frivolous spender.
And yet here we are, on the brink of having nowhere to go.
Rooms are now $1000 to rent in #yyc but that's "just inflation" right?

Landlords;

This is normalized now and people are STILL saying "but what about the landlords?!" #abpoli #bill205 #housingcrisis
"Landlords aren't greedy, we don't need a rent rate cap"
If landlords aren't greedy then they should have no issues with a rental rate cap, no?

@kgmceachern @Gellersamdaisy @JTweedleRD @albertaNDP Here’s a photo of Sandra, Marie. Jamie (ally) Bev (ally) and me discussing the advocates role. Then a photo of when we released the news of #BILL205 Alberta’s 1st Advocate for PwD! 💞
@kgmceachern @Gellersamdaisy @JTweedleRD @albertaNDP Before Sandra crossed the floor to NDP we were working on Albertans 1st advocate for PwD. She told Notley if she went to NDP they must adopt what we are working on. Notley agreed. Sandra crossed. We got #Bill205 and Alberta got their first Disability Advocate. Marie, Sandra & me.
Don’t bother unless the advocates office is independent. Look at what you did to the advocate for #Disabled Albertans! They are gagged. You made certain the advocate has zero SM accounts! Tony worked for Irfan never for disabled Albertans. #Bill205 I was there #AbLeg #AbPoli
Happy to see that delegates at the NDP Convention passed a resolution to create a Seniors’ Advocate.
Seniors built this province. They deserve a voice when it comes to affordability, to providing public healthcare for all and so much more. #ableg #yyc #abpoli #ABetterFuture
@RollieSpokes @SamanthasLaw I’m aware how long it takes for legislation to go through bureaucracy. #PDD review twas promised along with following recommendations had nothing to do w/new legislation. Also #BILL205 for an advocate took a year. That was legislated. They can do better. Excuses won’t help pwd.
@lotstodosue @Ashantz6 @changethecurri1 @jasonluan88 @jkenney Interesting. I’m now blocked too 😂 he’s never been an ally in #disability community. In fact when I was working with Sandra Jansen on #Bill205 for a Disability Advocate he was annoyed & he let her know. #AbLeg
