TL;DR
Bill 31 in Quebec gives tenants the right to transfer their leases to another tenant in the province. This means renters can leave their lease early by finding someone else to take over. Landlords must accept a lease transfer if all conditions are met. The bill aims to help renters in Montreal, where the vacancy rate is low and rental prices are high.
