17 Pieces Of Evidence That Landlords Shouldn't Even Be A Thing In The First Place
1. The fact that a PSA needed to be made because so many landlords were asking their tenants for sexual favors instead of rent:
I just remembered this awful PSA from during the pandemic asking women not to prostitute themselves to landlords because they lost their jobs and can't afford rent. How can anyone believe our society is normal? from LandlordLove
2. This incredibly offensive suggestion that a free stamp would be in any way helpful toward the rent struggle:
3. The landlord who let a maintenance worker come into a tenant's apartment without telling them and get dry wall dust all over everything:
Am I wrong to be furious about this? I come home from work and apparently my landlord had decided to have his maintenance guy patch a hole in my wall without telling me. This is all drywall dust on my shit and I’m livid. from pcmasterrace
4.Landlords who can't get it through their thick skulls that just because something "worked fine" four years ago doesn't mean it works now:
Texted my landlord to tell her that the fridge is broken and I stg this woman responded with “are you sure? It worked fine in 2017.” Like oh okay ma’am sorry I hadn’t considered that
5. The audacity of this landlord to literally charge their tenants for elevator rides:
6. This landlord who is preying on the family of their dead tenant for rent:
7. This landlord who let people into their tenants' homes during the pandemic:

8. Any landlord who thinks the things inside their tenants' apartments are essentially theirs:
9. Landlords who discriminate against applicants for screwed-up reasons:
10. Landlords who play down the urgency of basic human needs:
11. This landlord who's perfectly content letting their tenants suffer during a heat wave:
12. Any landlord who somehow think it's okay to spy on their tenants:
My landlord pretended to do do work the flat but ended up installing this 360° wifi surveillance camera which also records audio without telling me about it. from trashy
13. The types of landlords who are ready to screw everyone over because of one tenant's mistake:
14.This landlord who knows damn well they're screwed if a lawyer gets a firsthand look at how they run things:
just got rejected for an apartment as the landlord doesn't want a lawyer as a tenant
15.The fact that landlords have zero consideration for your vacation time:
My landlord just asked me for rent while I’m on vacation???
16. This landlord who had the world's most nonsensical (and, tbh, pretty dangerous) excuse for ending a tenancy:
So my landlord served notice for using a fan during this heat wave. How's your thursday going? from vancouver
17. And finally, this landlord who is totally fine with exposing their tenants to a sewage leak...possibly forever?!
So my landlord refuses to fix this recurring sewage leak in the basement, that is right beside the furnace. What can I do legally. from ontario
