All that needs to happen is the RTB needs to be funded for more arbitrators to get hear the cases more quickly, and there needs to be a mechanism that expedites non-payment eviction disputes to the front of that line so that they happen in a week or, not a month.

Mortgages and rents are not comparable in that sense. There's no "fair" or "unfair" between the two.
