This is illegal and when we called the tenants resource place, they said the backlog for dealing with tenant/landlord issues was so backed up, our only choice was to leave and then try to pursue them in court which could take a very long time. Or we could just refuse to leave, which probably would have created too much of a stressful situation since they lived upstairs from us. Right after we moved out, the suite came up for rent in Kijiji but the rent was marked up by $300. It was pretty obvious that they wanted to raise the rent, but because of the COVID rent freeze, they couldn't do it.
Laws are great, as long as they are enforced.

Okay, but while thats despicable its also a fairly standard sleazy landlord move.
Charging someone to live in your camper on the driveway? Thats next level.
They may as well have gone full 'Cousin Eddy' and just piped the sewage into a storm drain.
