Screenshot: legnb.ca<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Controversial legislation affecting tenants and landlords is making its way through the Legislative Assembly, with opposition parties crying foul over time limits imposed on debate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discussions became heated Wednesday as Memramcook-Tantramar MLA Megan Mitton sparred with Jill Green, Minister of Service NB and Minister responsible for housing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Minister of Housing has finally admitted that she won&#8217;t protect tenants by keeping the rent cap in place in the New Year,\u201d Mitton said during Question Period on Wednesday. \u201cTenants are terrified of losing their housing if they haven&#8217;t already&#8230; how can the Minister of Housing justify denying renters the protection of a rent cap next year?&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Green, who took over the contentious housing portfolio in October, defended her government\u2019s record and called Mitton\u2019s remarks \u201cinflammatory.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen I listen to the language that is used and the inflammatory way the question is asked, it doesn&#8217;t even make me want to answer her question,\u201d Green said. <em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mitton replied: &#8220;I do not appreciate the tone policing when I&#8217;m talking about people losing their housing.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last month, Green introduced Bill 25, An Act Respecting Residential Tenancies. Instead of extending rent control, the bill would create a \u201cphase-in\u201d mechanism for rent increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a rent hike exceeded the Consumer Price Index, the Residential Tenancies Tribunal could choose to phase in the increase over the course of up to three years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The system is complaint-driven, meaning tenants would have to formally complain to the tribunal before it would consider using the phase-in mechanism.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are doing everything we can to protect tenants and make it a balanced approach for landlords as well,\u201d Green said on Wednesday.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But renters rights advocates have denounced the legislation, demanding a rent cap that would limit rent hikes at two per cent annually. Advocates have noted examples of rent hikes that have exceeded 50 per cent amid the COVID-19 crisis and a widespread affordable housing shortage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I&#8217;m already getting stories, people with 25 per cent, 75 per cent, 100 per cent rent increases coming down the line and they don&#8217;t know what to do,&#8221; Mitton said on Wednesday.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this year, the province introduced a temporary 3.8 per cent rent cap in response to public pressure, but that provision is scheduled to expire at the end of this month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Wednesday, Bill 25 passed second reading in Premier Blaine Higgs\u2019 majority-controlled legislature, and it is now slated for discussion at the Standing Committee on Economic Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Higgs government has pushed for a quick passage of the legislation, limiting the time allocated to debate several bills ahead of a planned Dec. 16 adjournment of the Legislative Assembly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Carleton-York Tory MLA Richard Ames introduced the time-limiting motion on Tuesday, it was immediately challenged by Campbellton-Dalhousie Liberal MLA Guy Arseneault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He noted that Ames chairs the Standing Committee on Economic Policy. \u201cFor him to make a closure motion, a time allocation motion, is unethical as chair,&#8221; Arseneault said. &#8220;It means they don\u2019t want to listen to the arguments in committee, they don\u2019t want to work.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Green Party issued a statement on Thursday saying the limit on debate was \u201cundemocratic and runs roughshod over the authority of the Legislative Assembly.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the record, here\u2019s the exchange between Memramcook-Tantramar MLA Megan Mitton and Service NB Minister Jill Green.
