Renters and apartment residents
About 48% of Toronto households rent, and 40% of renter households live in unaffordable housing.
- Faster apartment repairs and stronger, coordinated RentSafeTO enforcement.
- Real protection against renovictions and illegal evictions, using every municipal power available.
- Maximum-heat standards, cooling support and high-rise fire, flood and child-fall prevention.
- More purpose-built rental housing through faster, clearer approvals and modern construction.
- A simple tenant-services portal with human help and visible case follow-through.
Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: renters get one coordinated system that protects homes, resolves problems and expands supply.
