Episode 45: Building a rent strike movement w/ Dru Oja Jay & Sam Hersh
About this episode
Oats chats with Dru Oja Jay and Sam Hersh about the ongoing efforts to organize rent strikes across Canada. We talk about the impact the COVID-19 crisis has had on renters, the desperation that's leading many to forgo paying rent, the kind of coalition-building that will be required if a rent strike movement is to win needed political victories, and more. Check out CancelRent.ca if you'd like to find ways to get involved in rent strike organizing.
