Hot Days, Cool Homes

To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:

WHEREAS Ontario is seeing record-setting heatwaves across the province

WHEREAS there have been alarming reports of tenants not being permitted to install their own air conditioning units in their apartments

WHEREAS Ford's Conservatives have refused to give people the right to install AC in rental units, even after passing Bill 97, leaving tenants defenseless in dangerously hot homes

WHEREAS extreme heat is putting lives at risk; especially for seniors, low-income renters, and people with disabilities

WHEREAS we need maximum temperature regulations to protect renters

Will you sign?

Therefore we the undersigned, petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario to:

  • Respect the health, safety and dignity of tenants by establishing a maximum temperature law for all rental units in Ontario
  • Permit tenants to safely install air-conditioning units in their homes
