Tenants Rights Townhall

Nova Scotia NEEDS rent control!


6:00pm
- 8:00pm
Jeudi Septembre 26 2013

Venue: North Memorial Library
Address: Gottingen Street

We are in the midst of an election, and ACORN-NS is fighting to put tenants rights on the agenda, specifically the implementation of rent control. Wages stay low as rent goes up, and landlords can raise the rent as high as they want while low-income tenants feel the squeeze.

Join us for an evening of discussion and keynotes on this important issue. This even will explore some of the problems with the legal processes that currently exist for tenants and why rent control is not only important, but necessary. Members and non-members are welcome!

Happening on Thursday, September 26th from 6-8pm at North Memorial Library on Gottingen St.

For further information or questions please contact our Nova Scotia office at (902) 266-2956 or novascotia@acorncanada.org.

 

ACORN Canada is an independent national organization of low and moderate income families with 51,000+ across the country. We believe that social and economic justice can best be achieved with an active membership focused on building power for change!
