This month, Alliance Citoyenne advocated for several tenant families, including a young mother who was left homeless after a fire. The tenants’ union Locataires Ensemble immediately mobilized and organized a rally of support. The collective action paid off: the landlord offered rehousing solutions without any increase in rent for the tenants. When we fight together, we win!

Alliance Citoyenne in the Monod District came together to celebrate the start of a potential thermal renovation project on an old building, which would bring cheaper electric bills and a more eco-friendly building for residents.

The Riverains Ensemble continues to organize tirelessly for victims of pesticides near industrial farming operations. They are a major source of advocacy and information countering the misinformation campaign of politicians like Jordan Bordella, who claim to be on the side of the people, while actually attempting to relax regulations on pesticides, causing major health concerns for working people.
