Nightmare tenant evicted in Canada!

Unpaid rent and allegations of criminal activity taking place at the residence led a Brantford, Ontario, landlord to evict a troublesome tenant.

Jeff Haggith began renting a bachelor unit in November 2024. By February 2025, the property's landlord, Layla Protopapa, alleges that Haggith stopped paying rent.

Protopapa also started to notice suspicious activity occurring around the property: people coming and going at all hours of the day, individuals passed out in front of the unit, and large amounts of garbage and other items piling up.

After months of back and forth with the Landlord and Tenant Board, the tenant was evicted on July 29.

When Haggith was asked about people being passed out outside his unit, he told Rebel News that they were “buying dope” and even offered to sell some to us.

Approximately seven people walked out of the unit when the sheriff arrived to evict the tenant. Haggith claimed they were there to help him move, but residents said they were living in the unit.

Hard drug use is destroying communities across Canada.

Protopapa’s property consists of four four-plexes, with families and children occupying some of the units. Residents claim to have found various drug paraphernalia, including used needles, around the property.

    When the police as well as politicians condone such behaviour, society is in irretrievable decay. Time to get your bug-out kits, food, & protection & head for the woods.

    What bugs me is bleeding hearts who say tenants must have more rights. What we need is a law that says criminal activity gives a landlord the right to kick such people out immediately. So many neighbourhoods are spoiled by drug houses and criminal tenants.

    And people wonder why there is a rental crisis? Landlords used to rent to anyone who seamed reasonable, they would take a chance because they could get them out if it didn’t work out. Now no one in their right mind rents anything unless they KNOW the renter has months worth of money and has gold standard references. And government idiots claim they are helping the poor? They’ve screwed over everyone including the people they claimed they were helping. Even in small towns rentals sit empty because landlords are not willing to take a chance.
