Tenants on both coasts stand united against abusive landlords and the government that enables them. From the Vancouver Plan A office to the oncology conference in Ottawa: no justice, no peace. @GillSharlene @OncEd @CAMO_ACOM @UBCmedicine #CAMO24

While Dr. Gill profits from her properties and medical practice, at-risk tenants lose both their paychecks and their health. Research shows that evictions are linked to worse health outcomes, both mentally and physically. Housing justice is health justice! #CAMO24 @OncEd

Gill is President of the Canadian Association of Medical Oncologists (CAMO). While she claims to foster “a culture of wellbeing” for patients, Plan A tenants are struggling with the trauma and anxiety of harassment, surveillance, and displacement @CAMO_ACOM #CAMO24 @UBCmedicine

Dr. Gill owns at least 15 (& as many as 30) rental units in Vancouver. Plan A “manages” most of her rental units and she tries to boost Plan A’s poor reputation with misleading reviews. Earlier this year Gill joined Majithia in a since-banned “landlord use” eviction @UBCmedicine

On Wednesday, Vancouver tenants rallied outside Plan A Real Estate’s office to protest unlawful evictions surveillance and harassment that started when Plan A bought their West End building in April.

...Plan A also featured in a recent CBC article about the latest trend in landlord abuse in Canada: serving tenants with libel lawsuits on top of evictions cbc.ca/news/canada/la…

Tenants recently discovered Plan A surveilling them with spy cams and private investigators to find an excuse to enforce evictions...

Dr. Gill and notorious landlord Anoop Majithia live together in luxury at their tenants' expense. Majithia was fined $10,000 in 2022 for making 152 illegal tenancy agreements. @GillSharlene #CAMO24 @OncEd

VTU allies in Ottawa are calling out Plan A’s harmful conduct and the complicity of Dr. Sharlene Gill, a landlord affiliated with Plan A, as she hosts #CAMO24 in Ottawa. From coast to coast, organized renters unite in resisting displacement on stolen land @GillSharlene @CAMO_ACOM

This is only Plan As most recent case in years of well-documented bad behaviour cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Tenants in Victoria are organizing against displacement caused by corporate funded politicians connected to corporate landlords and developers. Working class Victorians who make this city work want to stay, and to do that they are organizing. timescolonist.com/local-news/esq…

👀 NEW SIGN we put up to tell the truth about what our landlord QMW Corp is REALLY up to but doesn’t want us to know They boast to their investors about skirting around rent control & their plans to renovict AND demovict us, so we thought the whole neighbourhood should know…🧵

Your support is more important than ever. Please go to vancouvertenantsunion.ca/email_plana to send an email to Plan A supporting the tenants’ demands. It takes less than a minute!

Plan A and Majithia have ramped up surveillance, placed hidden cameras, hired private detectives and dug through private chat groups to find dirt and try to evict tenants. But the Park Beach Tenants Collective is fighting back and has never been stronger.

Exciting news! We are relaunching our Plan A - No Way page to document Plan A's ongoing harassment campaign against the Park Beach Tenants Collective. Visit westendtenants.ca to learn more and to write to Plan A with your support for Park Beach tenants.

Great plan guys
