Good afternoon; IMLA is planning to file an amicus brief in support of the City of Seattle in a case involving a constitutional challenges to its Fair Chance Housing (FCH) Ordinance and we need your help. The FCH ordinance prohibits landlords from asking anyone about prospective or current tenants' criminal or arrest history and from taking adverse action against them based on that information. Seattle Municipal Code § 14.09 et seq., "Adverse action" is defined as refusing to rent to the person, evicting the person, or charging higher rent. S.M.C. §14.09.010. We are curious if any Canadian jurisdictions have a similar ordinance/by-law? If you have a similar ordinance/by-law, could you please send a link to the current version? Please respond to me at akarras@imla.org<mailto:akarras@imla.org>. Thanks!
