Good news from 1440-1442 Lawrence!

Last year Barney River didn’t tell any tenant union members about an AGI hearing, and the LTB refused to hear from us about it.

Today we took them to divisional court and WON!

Our fight continues on the streets, in our homes & in the courts!

Great point here. The reason why landlords aren’t getting fined is the same reason why the Greenbelt fiasco happened:

The Provincial Cons take care of their rich friends.
