Speaking of the June 4 issue, it's being distributed through Regina right now. Here's an overview.

You bet.

I must confess, though, that you'll be disappointed if you're expecting answers to your numerous (and spot on) questions from the post about the Viva Apartments rent increase. I have yet to speak with anyone from Nicor about it.

What we do look at is the case of the three buildings on Hamilton that were recently approved for conversion and the provision the city negotiated with that developer guaranteeing that 75 percent of those units must remain in the rental pool.

Let me know what you think....
