Doug Ford has already pushed through Bill 60: The Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act, but the fight isn't over. The Province is now seeking public comment on the regulations that will decide just how fast they can kick you out of your home. 🚨

Ontario ACORN - the Ontario Wide Tenants Union - is demanding the Province:

🚫 Repeal Bill 60! We're in a housing crisis. We don't need a bill that fast-tracks evictions and strips away tenants' protections at the LTB.
🏠 Replace this disastrous bill with a provincial rent grant program.

Send a message to the Premier, Housing Minister, and your MPP NOW! 📧 This one simple action can make a difference.

When Doug Ford tried to end rent control, Ontario ACORN's local tenant unions in Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, London, Peel, Kitchener-Waterloo and elsewhere across the province sent 23,000+ emails in 72 hours, forcing the government to withdraw their plans. 💪

With the support from our tenant union members, allies and supporters we can do it again! 🔥

This is not a drill - this is happening NOW!! Sign the online action before it's too late: https://acorncanada.org/take_action/stop-fords-secrecy-bill-stand-up-for-democracy/

A month after FordNation cuts the housing budget by $347 million he buys a challenger jet... 😑🤦🏽‍♀️

If Ontario has money for private jets, we've got money to keep people off the streets and in their homes!

ACORN is fighting to prevent tenants struggling to pay rent from becoming homeless. ✊ Send Doug Ford a message in support of an Ontario Rent Grant Program (he can read it from the plane! ✈️).

After years of relentless organizing, ACORN and the City of New Westminster have made history—again! ✊🏙️

New Westminster has officially become the first city in Canada to pass a maximum heat bylaw, proving once again that when tenants organize, we WIN! 🏆📢

For too long, tenants have been left to swelter in dangerously hot apartments, told by landlords that they couldn’t even install their own A/C units (something that the City of New West also banned in 2025). But ACORN members know that extreme heat is a matter of life and death. 🌡️⚠️

New Westminster has a track record of boldly going where no council has gone before—starting with BC ACORN 's flagship Living Wage bylaw win in 2010 and the renoviction ban in 2019, both of which resulted in massive wins across the province for higher wages and expanded tenant protections. Now, by passing the first maximum heat bylaw in Canada, ACORN is proud to be a part of history once again! 📜✨

What’s Next? This is a massive win for climate justice and tenant rights, but we aren’t stopping here. No tenant should have to choose between paying rent and staying cool during a heatwave. 🧊🌍

So which Canadian city will be next? Members of Toronto ACORN Hamilton ACORN Ottawa ACORN London ACORN Peel ACORN Waterloo Region ACORN Alberta ACORN Nova Scotia ACORN New Brunswick ACORN are vying for it to be theirs. 🏁🏃‍♀️
