Partially lifting the eviction ban undermines its effectiveness and opens up already precarious tenants to abuse from their landlords. We now return to our #renovictions #demovictions crisis. They want to get back to normal; their normal is our nightmare.
@TRAC_BC @TAGVictoriaBC and over 1100 renters so far are demanding the B.C. gov cancel rent debt accrued as a result of this crisis. Join us:

Council voted in favour of the Marpole #demovictions today - heartbreaking news for most of the 60 tenants who will not be able to afford to come back, even with discounted rents. #vanpoli 
Thanks to so many who came out and spoke and wrote so eloquently in favour of keeping this community together - the residents, neighbours, community leaders. And #solidarity from @TRAC_BC too
A demoviction this large sets a precedent where its conceivable that CoV becomes the region’s next #demoviction capital. According to Council, the project was consistent with their policy guidelines. Renters must keep fighting this.
Developer/Renovicter Jon Stovall already stoking fears about #RealRentControlBC on @CBCStephenQuinn this morning, saying #VacancyControl will be 1 of "27 recommendations" the #RentalHousingTaskForce will make (1:48:00): bit.ly/2ywaJKP
He must be flaunting insider knowledge he enjoys w @bcndp b/c no info on the recommendations is public knowledge yet. BTW Stovall is president of Reliance Properties Ltd. - currently trying to mass renovict Berkley Tower tenants in the #WestEnd (ICYMI: bit.ly/2PpvPnS)
As the push for #RealRentControlBC ramps up, developers like Jon will want you to think that only developers can fix the #housingcrisis. We know first-hand that they actually help cause it w #renovictions & #demovictions and soaring rents #vanre
