I am sorry to hear this.
What type of agreement is this.
For example, is it a fixed term tenancy agreement?
And you are now in the space, right?
Is it considered a vacation rental?
yes
Vacation rentals are not covered by the Landlord Tenant Act.
For this reason your contract is what governs this situation.
So as long a your credit card works when the landlord tries again there is no reason for your landlord to have you leave.
If he insists or the police assist him then you can sue him in Small Claims Court for any damages you incur as a result of his breaching the contract.
I suggest you tell him just that.
You can say that if he breaches this agreement and you end up having to pay more to rent a new space you will sue him for the difference.
thank you very much, that was very helpful
