Kerri Mozessohn and Paige Jackson, a couple originally from Ontario, faced a no-fault eviction from their St. John’s apartment after receiving notice that their landlord intended to sell the property. Unaware of Newfoundland and Labrador’s regulations allowing such evictions without cause, they experienced significant distress as they were given only three months to relocate. Experts criticize the province’s lenient eviction laws, arguing they contribute to homelessness. The couple is now reconsidering their future in the province due to a perceived lack of tenant protections.
