Cassidy and Max speak with four UVic law students about their renting experiences as a jumping off point to inquire more broadly about the scope and application of tenancy rights in BC.
They interview lawyers Robert Patterson and Zuzana Modrovic of the Tenant Resource and Advisory Centre (TRAC) and Doug King of the Together Against Poverty Society (TAPS). The conversation touches on vacancy control, eviction notices, tips for the arbitration process, the impact of the housing crisis on supported housing, and more.
