Have your say – Rental Accommodations Study consultations

The public consultations described at the website

(en français:

are very important if we want the City to know how much we want better rental accommodation – better managed, built for a diversity of demographics, and in keeping with the character of our neighbourhood. Please consider filling out the website survey, attending one of the meetings below, and reading the materials provided on the City’s website beforehand. The more voices that are heard, the better!
