press charges ,put them in jail,i quit renting myself for the same reason.
Never going to happen in canada. In fact they are more likely to take the home away from him and give it tot he previous tenants.
Doesn’t Sudbury and surrounding area have a substance abuse epidemic?
Absolutely!!!
EVERYWHERE in ontario does
Yes Sudbury is especially bad. In town anyways. I went on an ATV trip up in Cochrane this summer. Spent a night in Sudbury on the way.. it’s by far the worst junkie infested town I’ve ever see .. Slumsbury…
Yep. Opioid crisis in all of Ontario 😬 especially the central-north.
My heart goes out to this landlord,
He goes out of his way to rent a nice home for someone, and that’s how they repay him.
Such a disgrace of a tenant
He wanted free money for doing nothing. Now he’s crying. Too bad.
I feel this man’s pain and the problem is province wide. I have a house in Fort Erie and I too have an ongoing issue from last year where a tenant did 52,000$ in damages still waiting on a hearing with LTB.
This falls on our terrible government. Disgraceful. Poor guy just trying survive.
How so? How exactly is it the government’s responsibility? What exactly is the government supposed to do? How is the government supposed to review tenants for him and do occasional spot checks? 🤔
I’m curious too. What exactly was the government supposed to do to prevent this? Dollars to doughnuts, you’d also say that the government needs to get out of citizens’ lives and business in the next breath 🙄
Agreed with you Wayne. The ban on eviction is the fault of the government. Landlords should have the ability to evict bad tenants.
If this was December 24th and a camel showed up with Mary and Joseph, I wouldn’t rent to them either but I would let them use the manger I have out back.
😳 😅🤣😂👀
Lol
Class action against the LTB would wake their asses up
I hope the renters that did this are punished.
I’d call them “animals”. But even animals wouldn’t do that much damage.
How does one break a drawer?
You can’t call them animals. Animals wouldn’t do that. They like to be clean. I don’t understand how anyone could destroy someone’s place like that. Why would anyone want to live like that? Drugs, drinking, partying, They’re just trash. Just one family like that can mess up the whole neighborhood. 🤬😡
They will suffer no consequences. Tennants have all the rights.
Are we sure these renters were human? Disgusting.
He should have rented the home to a nice senior couple and charged modest rent instead of drug addicts and charging double
This is absolutely horrible 😨 I’m so sorry this happened to you my lord there is just no reason..yikes
In past 10 months, Government spend around 10K per person (kid, adult, old -> just everyone). I did not get a dime. May be it went to someone else. Same happened with everyone in my family. May be yours too. So, where did all the money go 🙁
What was their motive for trashing the place? Extremely disrespectful.
They knew their time was coming for them to leave,so they decided to trash the place. Its the only motive i see.
@Satanspy Yep. It was payback.
I’m guessing drug use must be involved. I can’t see anyone in their right mind doing this much horrific damage.
Soon all the office towers downtown will be converted to low income housing, u can just hose those out after tenants like the pound does with dog kennels.
Its a tough business charging for shelter.
That is why in our small town so many potential tenants now live in tents in the forest. They constantly beg for places like this to live, but those places no longer exist. You can thank our Criminal Government for siding far to often with animals like these…..
I can’t even call them animals. I love animals.
There should be automatic jail time for this type of nonsense.
That’s exactly why I stopped being a landlord. I had over $7000 damage and 4 months of unpaid rent. Absolutely disgusting and destructive slobs.
This is horrible. Government should make strict rules for tenants.
How sickening….these dirtbags need to be put in work camps and taught respect…prayers to this owner and family 🤔🙏🕯
