Landlords Association calls on government to provide better supports to landlords
The CEO of the Saskatchewan Landlords Association said until the process to remove unwanted residents is made easier, we will continue to see the types of cases like one in Prince Albert last month after a standoff.
Cameron Choquette is responding to recent comments made by the landlord of the home, who relayed to paNOW issues of getting troublesome tenants evicted and not knowing people were squatting.
In the weeks following the incident, a number of other local landlords have contacted paNOW and opened up about their own struggles, expressing feelings of helplessness and frustration.
The man who was the subject of the standoff and eventual arrest, Colton Lafond, is facing a number of charges including robbery and attempted murder. His next court date is on April 4.
