Do you seriously not understand the difference between expropriation and simply telling a tenant that when the lease is up, you will not be renewing it?
It is dumb to think that the City owes its tenants more than a regular landlord does. The City has already gone above and beyond in giving them THREE years notice.
Seriously, do you believe to that the government has a duty to help someone move? Because that's all this is. People were renting space for their trailer. The city gave them 3 years notice that the lease will not be renewed. They had THREE YEARS to find somewhere else to move the trailer.
I've moved 6 times in/out and around Calgary, and the City has never helped me. Maybe I should send Nenshi a twitter message next time and offer beer and pizza.
