NDP MLA Suzy Hansen stated that discussions with tenant and landlord advocates at a legislative committee meeting revealed no progress on long-standing concerns, likening it to a "hamster wheel." Advocates raised issues with fixed-term leases and rent control, while landlords cited challenges with the rent cap. The government is reviewing the rent cap's impact before its 2027 expiration.
