Residential rent registry launched
A residential rent registry has been launched so people have a hope of finding out what the existing rent was on a given flat, and landlords can’t apply unfair hikes between tenants.

It seems what’s new is Vivre en Ville and others sponsoring this, and the name. This website was actually created six years ago under the name monloyer [dot] quebec. If you check this new site’s Facebook page you’ll see six years of history and lots of references to the old site in posts and photos (the email is also still at the old site). Same with if you google the old site, there are links to the new one with the old site’s name in the title. It was originally made by a bunch of web developers part of a non-profit cooperative. It’s good it now has financial backing and institutional support. It’s just weird they’re saying things like “Conçu par Vivre en Ville” when I saw the new site and immediately knew by the design it had to be related to the old one. I mean does Radio-Canada/Canadian Press really think 15,000 people signed up between the site “launching” this morning and when they published their story at 2 pm?

Thanks for the background on this, Nicholas.

Odd that the entries I added to the old monloyer site didn’t get transferred to the new one.
