Premier David Eby's proposed housing legislation that would remove 'no-rentals' clauses from stratas has generated debate among strata owners.

Re: Eby's housing plan a 'cheap, opportunistic dodge,' Letters to the editor

Judy has made excellent points.

It is a destruction of our democratic rights and processes when government overrules us. What’s next?

I have a suggestion: maybe David Eby should make a law where anyone living in a single-family home with more bedrooms than occupants be forced to take in a renter from the Downtown Eastside. That would get people off the street. Let’s see how that flies!
