THE BC SPGA PET-FRIENDLY RESIDENTIAL TENANCIES CAMPAIGN

The extreme lack of pet friendy housing is now the top reason for animal surrenders in British Columbia.

Pets are discriminated against although 95% of Canadians consider their pets are "family members". This blatant bias and discrimination on behalf of BC lawmakers is unacceptable. Our loved ones should not be seperated from us because of inadequate, discriminatory and unfair laws.

The Basics. According to section 18 of the Residential Tenancy Act, landlords are allowed to restrict pets entirely, or set limits on the number, size, or type of pets a tenant can have in their rental unit.

Join our Make BC Pet-friendly campaign so that our family pets can live with us and bring joy and love into our lives.

Giving up a pet is a difficult, heart-wrenching decision for pet owners, many of whom consider their pet to be family as pets provide considerable emotional support and have a significant influence on the physiological and psychological health of their owners.

Campaign For BC Pet-friendly Tenancies Legislation

55% of British Columbians own a pet or animal - that's over half of the population!

95% of animal guardians in Canada think of their pets as family. Pets contribute so much to our lives and those of our children.

With higher costs of living and low pet vacancies in BC it's increasingly more difficult to keep a pet.

Join the BC SPGA campaign for BC Pet-friendly changes to the BC Residential Tenancy Act legislation.

Make a difference for the animals. Wanted pets don't deserve to be surrendered or displaced from their loved ones. The animals are innocent and they are the victims of the non-pet residential tenancy crisis.
