For Mayor of Toronto · 2026Faster repairs
Strengthen coordinated RentSafeTO enforcement, publish follow-through and make it easier to escalate serious building-condition problems.
Home / For Torontonians / Renters
Safe homes. Fair repairs. More rentals.Renters and apartment residents deserve a City that protects today’s home while building tomorrow’s supply.
Housing policy cannot stop at approving new units. Toronto must also help repair existing apartments, protect lawful tenancies and make high-rise living safer through heat, fire, flood and fall prevention.
The clear commitment
Protect renters. Fix buildings. Build more homes.
One coordinated approach should connect supply, enforcement, safety and human help.
Fair tenancy support
Use every available municipal tool to help prevent illegal evictions and renovictions and connect renters with reliable legal and housing navigation.
Heat and cooling safety
Advance practical maximum-heat protections, cooling support and clear emergency plans for vulnerable residents.
High-rise resilience
Reduce fire, flood and fall risks through safer battery practices, child-safe barriers, flood protection and building readiness.
More purpose-built rentals
Speed approvals and infrastructure coordination while using modular and robotics-assisted construction to expand supply.
One tenant-services front door
Provide a simple starting point with human help, case status and clear handoffs between City services.
Why this turns Megacity into Gigacity: Toronto treats the renter’s full experience as one connected responsibility rather than six separate bureaucracies.
Apartment safety
Reduce the 3 Fs before families face a crisis.
Fire, flood and fall prevention should be visible, practical and affordable.
- SafeCharge alternatives and enforcement focused on dangerous commercial-scale battery activity.
- Backwater valves, sump pumps, neighbourhood stormwater work and earlier warnings.
- Child-safe windows, balconies, rooftops and common areas without sacrificing light or dignity.
- Emergency communication, cooling plans, elevator-outage readiness and accessible evacuation planning.
