Dozens of tenant advocacy organizations in Manitoba signed an open letter on Friday demanding that the provincial government take immediate action on rent control to stem rising rents.
The groups say that rent increases are reportedly forcing long‑term tenants out of their homes.
Manitoba currently has no province‑wide rent‑control policy, prompting the organizations to urge new regulations.
