Fight for a furnace — Windsor tenant’s five-year battle in Ontario’s overburdened housing tribunal
65% Informative
Sherry Mailloux , a cancer survivor twice over, a mother, and a tenant, says she is still waiting for justice.
It has taken five years for the tribunal to rule in her favour as of this January , but she still hasn’t seen a dime.
No-fault evictions are becoming a popular loophole for landlords across the province.
Seniors, low-income tenants, and newcomers are disproportionally the targets of no-fault evictions.
The onus also falls on the tenant to prove their landlord has no plans to renovate or move into the unit.
Without the resources and understanding of the Residential Tenancies Act , these groups are least equipped to fight back.
The heat and hot water in her new building shut off without warning, leaving tenants without basic services for weeks .
She later learned her new landlord stopped paying the property management company, the middle agency responsible for covering the bill.
Now, Mailloux is unsure if she will have to start over once again — the treadmill many low-income tenants must navigate.
