Hello! Housing is unaffordable in Ontario, but the NDP are putting forward ways to change this. One is Bill 58. This is a bill to put more teeth into stopping the common practice of "renovictions", where landlords kick out tenants, renovate the place, and then rent it later at a much higher price.

Here is a petition in support of this bill. Please sign today! https://www.petertabuns.ca/support_bill_58

Sign the petition to support NDP MP Lisa Marie Barron's motion to create a National Citizens' Assembly on Electoral Reform. Let the politicians know this is what we want!

• The NDP's health critic says their bill follows the council's recommendations and the principles of the Canada Health Act. He said the proposal allows the government to negotiate with provinces and territories on a pharmacare plan, and would allow Ottawa to withhold funding from provinces if they don't comply with the act.
