点评Pi314,“无知者无畏。”关于租客是否该付房租,在哪些情况下租客不需要付房租,建议你们读读安省"Tenant Rights" 和 "OHRC( Ontario Human Rights Commission) ,里面有详细的规定,对房东的违权侵权行为有减免房租、承担刑事责任等不同形式的惩罚。如果房东llegal Lookout, 上门骚扰房客, 不按租约给房客门钥匙,房客不仅不用付房租,房东还有可能被警察逮捕,涉刑事罪。可惜,很多低收入(华裔)房客不知道维护自己的权利,任由违法的房东摆布。像你们这种尽说风凉活的,也给弱势民众维权带来很大难度。建议你们找律师咨询清楚,不要在坛内胡乱灌水,误导大众。
Housing is a human rightInternational law says that people in Canada should be able to get good housing that they can afford. To help achieve this in Ontario, tenants and landlords (or housing providers) have rights and responsibilities under the Human Rights Code. As a tenant, you have the right to equal treatment in housing without discrimination and harassment. You cannot be refused an apartment, harassed by a housing provider or other tenants, or otherwise treated unfairly because of your: - race, colour or ethnic background
- religious beliefs or practices
- ancestry, including people of Aboriginal descent
- place of origin
- citizenship, including refugee status
- sex (including pregnancy and gender identity)
- family status
- marital status, including people with a same-sex partner
- disability
- sexual orientation
- age, including people who are 16 or 17 years old and no longer living with their parents
- receipt of public assistance.
You are also protected if you face discrimination because you are a friend or relative of someone identified above.
加拿大的法制精神看似无情,其实在约束每一个人,包括违权滥权的警察、官员和媒体人。如果人人都信口开河,置法律精神不顾,最终受害的其实是每一个加拿大人。无论是房东抢夺房客行李,害人无家可归,还是像《七天》这样阻挠新移民创业,令其生计维艰,最后的负担都落在政府头上。而政府的福利政策是靠每一位纳税人的税钱来支撑,所以,支持房东和媒体人的违法违权行为,等于由你们自己来承担这些高额的犯罪成本。
