I work in the legal clinic system where we primarily deal with housing matters. This would be devastating and would almost completely negate the Residential Tenancies Act.
In particular, they want leases to no longer necessarily remain in effect indefinitely, so that landlords have more options for creating tenant turnover.

A wonderful result for Canada’s Maeliss Trapeau.
She becomes just the sixth Canadian ever to break the 1:59 barrier in the 800m
Trapeau won’t advance to the final but she just posted a lifetime best time.
