At Major Local Landlords' : The Cucurulls - Immopolis - Topo Immobilier
Join our union's picket line!
After beating a court injunction, our union is calling for renewed solidarity in organizing against the Cucurull family, a group of major Montreal landlords. Our tenants' union initially called for support after a delivery of a petition to the offices of the Cucurulls turned sour. The Cucurulls have spent tens of thousands of dollars to secure injunctions stopping our union from publically releasing information on their actions.
A recent victory over parts of the injunction allows union members to once again speak publicly about the company. Not only have the Cucurulls still not provided an action plan for tenants' demands listed in their petition, but a $380,000 lawsuit tragetting the union has been initiated by the real estate family. Tenants request compensation for the Cucurulls' actions during the petition delivery at their office, and an action plan for repairs, respect, and smaller rent increases.
The Cucurulls run as many as 29 buildings and up to 446 units. The real estate family has been involved in hundreds of cases in the housing tribunal in the past two decades. In 2019, their offices were subject to an occupation by tenants condemning long-time residents being evicted so the companies could raise rents.
A legal and solidarity fund has been set up to assist union members facing court proceedings initiated by the Cucurulls. Join our picket line Friday, donate what you can, and organize tenants in your building to build tenant power on our streets and in our neighbourhoods! A better city will grow from solidarity and community! Solidarity in each and every struggle with landlords!
