Evictions in Canada: The Impact of Evictions on Security of Tenure and the Right to Housing

Evictions are rising across Canada and the consequences fall hardest on those least able to absorb them. This edited volume from the Balanced Supply of Housing brings together rigorous research on who is being evicted, who is filing evictions, and how landlord-tenant laws across the country are, and aren’t, protecting renters. From the role of financialized landlords to racial disparities in eviction filings, the research exposes the systemic forces driving housing instability and offers concrete policy recommendations. Read the full publication to understand what’s driving Canada’s eviction crisis and what needs to change.
