"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6173485\" data-originallang=\"en\"> We've heard from a lot of landlords and from tenants around this program. Now, both levels of government will provide a 50% rent subsidy. Within that, 25% is picked up by the landlord and 25% is picked up by the tenant. I understand the landlords could pick up more. There is a complexity in it, in that there are common area costs, there are utility costs and a lot of things that landlords do. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6173486\" data-originallang=\"en\">Wouldn't it make more sense to be able to say, \u201cListen, we'll pick up 50% of the rent, given the situation that people are [<em>Inaudible-Editor</em>],\u201d and allow the landlord and the tenant to come up with their own agreement as to what the other half looks like? It could be a blend and extend. It could be a variety of things. Really, at the end of the day, as long as they attest that they have an agreement, they should be able to go forward.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6173485\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Beaucoup de propri\u00e9taires et de locataires nous ont parl\u00e9 de ce programme. Maintenant, les deux paliers de gouvernement vont fournir une subvention locative de 50 %, tandis que le propri\u00e9taire paiera 25 % et le locataire, 25 %. Je crois que les propri\u00e9taires pourraient en assumer plus. C'est complexe, parce qu'il y a les co\u00fbts des locaux communs, les co\u00fbts des services publics et beaucoup de choses que font les propri\u00e9taires. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6173486\" data-originallang=\"en\">Est-ce qu'il ne serait pas plus simple de dire: \u00ab \u00c9coutez, nous allons assumer 50 % du loyer, \u00e9tant donn\u00e9 que les gens sont [<em>Inaudible</em>] \u00bb et permettre au propri\u00e9taire et au locataire de s'entendre sur l'autre moiti\u00e9? Ce pourrait \u00eatre un choix mixte et une prolongation. Cela pourrait prendre diverses formes. En fin de compte, ils devraient pouvoir se d\u00e9brouiller du moment qu'ils attestent qu'ils ont un accord.</p>"
