Tenants evicted for non-payment of rent

IMHO most landlords should stop charging unreal amounts of rent....

The rent is over 2200 a month plus utilities and is another example of people biting off more then they can chew. This landlord thought this would be a cash coq and easy money but didn't see that being a landlord requires other thing such as proper maintenance. These tenant took the place thinking they could afford it but clearly they could or maybe lost employment either way could no longer afford it and instant find themselves in the same situation that is creating nonstop homeless in this city because there is almost nothing affordable to rent here. Either way you look at it it is a mess.

You know why rent is so high? Because these losers have nothing on paper, will never pay a time and the next tenant will be paying the landlord’s losses.

They paid zero dollars in rent. This is neither of those scenarios. This is a couple who made the conscious decision to never pay rent at all.

These kind of tenants are part of the reason high rents exist. If you don't like being a tenant then becime an owner.

10 months, what a messed-up bureaucracy. They should have been booted out the door immediately for non payment or the government cover the losses. Landlords are not charities and have bills to pay.

They purposely dragged out the hearing knowing full well they couldn't afford it and had no intention of paying it but yeah lets blame the landlord who's carrying the mortgage for somebody else to live in it for free......

A few decades ago when I rented I needed first and last month’s rent and proof of tenant insurance. I’d get an eviction threat on my door if my rent was over 24 hours late and had to provide post dated cheques. There were rules that had to be followed and consequences if we didn’t. Too bad it’s not like this anymore. We used to learn responsibility.

Good luck getting any of the money back! He should have received a much longer sentence considering all the victims he took advantage of.

“ Don’t Agree “, you are correct, the name is “ hero “

That’s it?? That many years of getting away with making other people’s lives miserable should come with equal amount of years of his life made miserable. You know any money won’t ever get paid back to his victims.

Don't worry the deadbeats will be ok they won't be able to pay anyway, and the landlord will have to eat the loss but he/she will at least be happy to get rid of these garbage individuals.

Unreal amounts of rent? Average house price in Thunder Bay is bit over $350.000...so A $350,000 mortgage in early 2026 typically results in monthly principal and interest payments between $2,100 and $2,350 for a 30-year term (assuming 6%-7% interest rates). For a 15-year term, payments generally range from $3,000 to over $3,300. These figures exclude property taxes, insurance, and potential PMI, which can increase the total monthly payment.

One million/year savings. Meanwhile the city spends like drunken sailors elsewhere.

lol I'm not sure you understand what needs funding. Cops deal with literally 50,000+ calls a year whereas the calls firefighters deal with are overwhelmingly as a secondary unit to paramedics.

Good luck. Hope it all comes together as this should get more homeless off the streets, and give them some hope for a better life. I am curious to know how much this renovation will cost and where all the funds are coming from.
