Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is calling on landlords to show compassion to renters facing difficulty meeting their May 1 deadline because of COVID-19 difficulties.
She says if a tenant has lost income, now is a good time for a landlord to support their neighbours and their country in a time of crisis.
Freeland says it is also a time for banks to be thoughtful about the mortgage payments that landlords must pay.
