🚨BREAKING🚨
Rents are falling across Canada — but not in Nova Scotia. While the Houston government refuses to create real rent control and build homes people can actually afford, renters are paying the price.
ALT A graphic comparing rent trends shows average rent in Nova Scotia up 1.8% and average rent across Canada down 2.3%. Text at the top reads “Breaking,” with arrows indicating the increase and decrease.
Nova Scotia Power has applied to increase power rates even more. Last week, Claudia Chender spoke up for Nova Scotians who are already paying too much and getting unreliable power.

It's not right that Nova Scotians pay 30% more than the average Canadian and double what someone in Montreal pays for power.
The Houston government needs to make sure people can afford their power right now.
