Presse Internationale , a much loved Annex bookstore, is closing due to huge rent hike.
Owner Edith Yang and her husband say they cannot afford the $ 4,000 rent increase their landlord is asking for.
They've been in the space for close to 20 years , but the previous owner kept rent very low and they can no longer afford to do so.
There are virtually no rent protections for commercial tenants in Ontario , which contrasts to residential tenants where there is some rent increase cap for buildings older than 2018 .
Presse Internationale is advocating for what they call a “Commercial Renters Bill of Rights” BWA is also championing the cause for small businesses, who they say are extremely vulnerable.
