Today a landlord in #Parkdale tried to evict a tenant who couldn’t pay his rent, and threatened to call the cops on him. Thankfully, he’d already used the tools at http://KeepYourRent.com"> http://KeepYourRent.com to connect with neighbours who were ready to have his back.

As with all bullies, sometimes just knowing a tenant isn’t alone is enough to change a landlord’s disposition.

What started with a threat of immediate eviction & police action from the building manager became a negotiation between the tenant and the building’s owners.
