MONTREAL -- Some tenants living in Montreal's Plateau borough may have to find a new place to live come July after receiving a letter to vacate the building in three months. It's a 90-unit apartment building dating back to Expo '67, and many of its tenants have been living there for a long time. "When I saw the paper when I went to bed I start crying I was looking at my apartment it’s like they were taking my life away," said Ginette Giguere, who received on of the eviction letters that advised her she would need to leave by June 30 as major repairs are needed.
