In this shocking Toronto real estate nightmare, Sally returned home from China only to find squatters had taken over her Toronto home. Despite calling the police, the squatters claimed residency rights, leaving Sally powerless as the police deemed it a civil matter. Forced to sleep in friends' basements while still paying for her home's mortgage and utilities, Sally endured a grueling 7-month legal battle with the Landlord and Tenant Board to reclaim her house and evict the squatters. The experience revealed that everyone, even homeowners, is feeling the impact of the worsening housing crisis in Toronto. It really emphasized how crucial it is to stay on top of property management and know the ins and outs of real estate laws in Toronto.

Ok.... here is a thought...
Instead of going to court, hire a bunch of people to "squat your house".
Then if the current squatters have an issue with that, they have to court for that... not your problem... let the law that helps them, help ypu as well...
Hey, that's quite an idea! Turning the tables on the squatters could definitely create an interesting situation. Plus, in Toronto, the new squatters would have to claim they're tenants since tenants have more rights than property owners here. Things can get tricky fast. Thanks for sharing your creative approach!
simple just squat tell they leave and replace the lock when they leave problem solved. they have to go out and buy food
How is this just not break and entering
It’s really frustrating how squatters can claim to be tenants and have so many rights in Ontario. I get that the laws are there to protect genuine tenants, but it seems unfair when people can just occupy a property and then claim tenant rights. How is this not considered break and enter? It feels like homeowners are left with very few options to reclaim their property without going through a lengthy legal process. Has anyone else dealt with this situation?
This is insane… it seems to be an issue in western progressive countries.. I first heard about this in Spain, and then in NY (with the illegals breaking into the homes), and now here in Canada… is really crazy how Canada gives more rights to squatters, thieves, and just anyone that is doing the wrong thing… I’m leaving Canada, but I know this is an issue that can happen anywhere (in the first world). If I returned to my country, I know people would be forced out, because this home invasions are not taken lightly in most third world countries.
Yeah, it’s wild how things are going in a lot of Western countries these days. Canada, for instance, is trying to be super progressive, and they think they’re doing a great thing by preventing homelessness and supporting vulnerable people. But it often means squatters and even thieves end up with more rights than homeowners.
I’ve heard similar stories from Spain and New York, with illegal break-ins and all. It’s definitely frustrating for those of us who feel our property rights are getting trampled on. A lot of these policies come from a place of wanting to create a more supportive society, tackling issues like affordable housing and economic inequality.
I get why you’d want to leave Canada over this. It’s tough when you feel like the system is working against you. And yeah, in many third-world countries, home invasions are dealt with much more harshly, so property owners feel more protected.
It’s a tricky balance between helping those in need and protecting homeowners’ rights. Some folks think these measures are essential for a fairer society, while others see them as just creating more problems. It’s a real mixed bag, depending on how you look at it.
