The financial and emotional stress of evicting tenants who are months behind on rent has made Patricia Celan into an advocate for reforming Nova Scotia's ...
Colton LeBlanc, minister of Service Nova Scotia and internal services, said in an interview last week his department is doing an analysis of the enforcement mechanisms in other jurisdictions. When the tenants refused to pay, Celan had to seek a residential tenancies order requiring them to leave, which required a three-week wait. "I'm on a leave of absence and I'm hoping to go back to school once I've learned for sure they (the tenants) have moved out," she said. Last Wednesday, Provo and Sutts failed to appear before a small claims court for an appeal of their eviction โ an appeal they had initiated. She says too much onus falls on landlords and renters in Nova Scotia when one of the parties is allegedly not complying with the Residential Tenancies Act. The financial and emotional stress of dealing with tenants who don't pay their rent has caused Celan to become an advocate for reforming Nova Scotia's residential tenancy system to include an enforcement and compliance unit.

Asked about her view on whether fines should be imposed for willfully violating tenant laws, Satz said it depends on the circumstances. When the eviction order was issued on July 26, Provo and Satz granted an appeal to the small claims court, which was set up on August 5. In an interview last week, Lowe said at her hearing, a housing tenancy officer would expect a significant increase in rent if both she and a previous tenant insisted on moving into a monthly lease instead of a monthly one. The landlord concerned did not respond to a request for comment. It was the end of a long process. โItโs hard to think of anything else.โ Last Wednesday, Provo and Sutts did not appear in small claims court to appeal their eviction. He added that it was delayed.
