As many of you have noted Bill 60, the ‘Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act, 2025’ passed in the provincial legislature on November 25. The bill sparked a great deal of controversy and was opposed in a 23-1 vote by Toronto City Council over concerns that its passage would weaken tenant rights and increase evictions and homelessness in the city at a time when inventory is low and affordability is a general concern.
Councillor Matlow was among the Councillors voting against this Bill and we will continue to follow this important dossier and its aftermath given that in the DPRG neighbourhood approximately a third of residents are renters, while overall in Ward 12 the number rises above 60%.
