Halifax tenants rallied against severe cockroach, mice, and bedbug infestations in neglected apartment buildings. Residents say landlords ignore repeated complaints about pests, mold, flooding, and unsafe conditions while continuing to charge rent. Housing group ACORN is urging the municipality to enforce property standards bylaws and hold negligent landlords accountable.
