Research Highlights Need for Better Tenant Protections
University of Toronto researcher Sean Grisdale analyzed 385,000 eviction filings in Toronto and its surrounding areas, revealing a concerning trend of "no-fault" evictions.
These evictions occur when landlords want to sell, renovate, or use the property for themselves, rather than due to missed rent payments.
The research indicates that tenants in Black-majority neighborhoods are disproportionately affected by such evictions.
