A Vancouver lawyer has concerns that changes to residential tenancy regulation in B.C. could erode the dignity of people living in supportive housing.
The province is amending residential tenancy regulation to exempt supportive housing units from sections of the residential tenancy act that prohibit blanket guest policies and wellness checks.
Danielle Sabelli is a lawyer with the Community Legal Assistance Society.
She says that current rules already allow landlords to restrict guests if there is a reasonable basis to do so, and also says that the changes risk undermining the rights, dignity, and autonomy of vulnerable tenants.
