des membres de l’équipe de Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois sont allés à la rencontre des locataires.
«On a des gens qui nous ont dit qu’ils voulaient payer leur loyer, qu’ils ont essayé de
toutes les manières pour essayer de le faire en allant même chercher des adresses sur
le registraire des entreprises. Et ces gens-là se retrouvent quand même devant le TAL»,

is worsening, both in terms of rental costs and availability. | | CTV - Quebec Solidaire Says Will Devote Energy To Housing 
The two also vigorously denounced Quebec's affordable housing program,
the PHAQ, which replaced the Accès-Logis program. In two years, the
PHAQ has only led to the construction of 46 housing units, none ready
to receive occupants.
"Two years later, their program has resulted in zero housing units
being built. The proof is in the pudding. The CAQ program doesn't work.
It's a total failure and we're in the middle of a housing crisis.
It's unacceptable. It's an embarrassing record," Nadeau-Dubois said. |
