Nearly 5M renter households face different eviction protections depending on where they live. Our latest research documents this disparity, finding that strong tenant protections already exist within Canada, but they are not applied uniformly. 3 new tools clarify the differences:

AGIs are increasingly common among corporate & financialized landlords. In our latest Overhead episode, Julie Mah, Martine August & Douglas Kwan argue these increases are being used as a revenue generating tool or even a means to displace tenants. 🎧️ buff.ly/J0DBpYW

6/6 CMHC's index is a real advancement in affordability measurement. The next step: explicitly incorporate investor ownership structures & how they shape rental outcomes. With better measurement comes better policy. For more research, visit bsh.ubc.ca

5/6 The rental analysis also falls short. It credits future relief to unsold condos entering the rental market, but CMHC's own data shows historically low vacancy rates across key cities. And financialized landlords, AGIs & eviction-driven turnover? Not mentioned once.

1/6 CMHC announced a new Housing Affordability Composite Index today—a meaningful step forward in how we measure housing stress. But the analysis has some notable gaps worth unpacking. buff.ly/I9cIEFs

🏠 What does the suspension of CHF mean for non-profit & Indigenous hsg providers that were counting on it? 🔑85% of BC evictions are no-fault, yet the budget introduces no new renter protections. Affordable supply is shrinking, so why isn't the province taking a stronger stance?

BC's 2026 Budget took a noticeable step away from affordable housing while quietly suspending the CHF without a word in the budget. While there is some good news, the budget categorically fails to treat housing as the foundational infrastructure provincial stability depends on.

The reality is that there are over 5,200 unhoused people in MetroVan. Given the proper supports, “people are often not even aware that it is a supportive housing community because people are just living their lives.” We hope today's BC budget upholds the right to housing for all.

“People are afraid of what they perceive these people to be bringing into their communities, and research has proven that isn’t necessarily the case.” BSH's Dr. Penny Gurstein commented on the need for supportive housing in the face of growing backlash. buff.ly/1J5xJh4
