Heron Gate is a large rental neighbourhood in Ottawa, on unceded Algonquin land, which is owned by one multi-billion-dollar real estate investment firm. Around 800 people?predominantly lower-income, racialized households?have been demovicted and displaced from the neighbourhood since 2016, leading to the emergence of the Herongate Tenant Coalition to fight the evictions and confront the landlord-developer. Resisting Eviction centres tenant organizing in its investigation of gentrification, eviction and the financialization of rental housing. Troubling discourses of urban liveability, revitalization and improvement, Crosby examines the deliberate destruction of home?domicide?and tenant resistance. Meticulously documented through political activist ethnography, this book is a brilliant example of ethical engagement and methodological integrity.
