Huh? Which province?
Sorry I'm late with this response, but Alberta
Well, how'd they up the rent by $600? Is there no rent control in Alberta?
Calgary is one of the best places in North America .. for landlords. Tenants have basically zero protections here. Every time my landlord does something shitty and shady I look up the law and landlords always have the upper hand.
All I got was a letter stating that as per my lease agreement, my lease is over and I would have to move out by the end of the month (which was a little over 2 weeks away) or reply to the letter to accept the $1800 (previously $1200) rental price.
Example: Have bedbugs? It's your landlords responsibility to get rid of them. If your landlord doesn't? You can move out. That's what the law states, even though it states it's your landlords responsibility to get rid of them.
Damn. Alberta is really crap. But I've heard that in cities at least like Edmonton or Calgary at least the supply is there for housing.
