Big business, small business and homeowners have received federal government relief, but what about tenants? The Canadian Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) for people made unemployed due to COVID-19 is not enough to cover the rent of many people. With provinces largely responsible for housing, what can New Brunswick, a province considered to have the worst tenant rights of any Canadian province, with no tenants\u2019 association, do to counter the powerful landlord lobby that threatens to make more people homeless? Although the New Brunswick government had imposed a moratorium on evictions for tenants who could not pay their rent because of COVID-19, the government lifted that moratorium on May 31&#8221;. With panelists\u00a0<strong>Martine August<\/strong>\u00a0(an Assistant Professor in the School of Planning at the University of Waterloo),\u00a0<strong>Asaf Rashid<\/strong> (a lawyer and long-time community and union organizer), and\u00a0<strong>Aditya Rao<\/strong> (a lawyer, renter and new tenant in Fredericton). It will be moderated by <strong>Kristi Allain <\/strong>(Canada Research Chair in Physical Culture and Social Life), and <strong>Matthew Hayes\u00a0<\/strong>(Canada Research Chair in Global and International Studies).
