Advocacy groups in New Brunswick call for rent control and tenant protections amid a rental housing crisis.

Advocacy groups in New Brunswick have released a report highlighting the need for stronger tenant protections amid a rental housing crisis. They urge political parties to support rent control, with the Liberals proposing a 3% cap and the Greens a 2.5% cap, while the PCs oppose such measures. The report also calls for a landlord-tenant tribunal and amendments to the Residential Tenancies Act to safeguard tenants against unfair rent hikes and evictions.
