They are an Indian couple, along with the landlord, which doesn\u2019t really matter except for the fact the landlord posted an ad a couple days ago (I still frequent rentals to see how the market is) and stated they are looking for an Indian tenant.<\/p>\n<p>I have not gotten any notice or anything about this. The ad is definitely new and updated, with a move in date of October 1st.<\/p>\n<p>I texted the landlord to ask what the deal was over 24 hours ago. No reply yet. My call this morning was iced.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve had zero conflict with the upstairs people (as far as I know?), I run a tight ship and keep the common areas clean. Rent always on time. I asked them once if they wanted to go for coffee and they declined, so since then I just don\u2019t keep much contact with them. They have friends over very often so I just assume they don\u2019t care much for me (which is fine).<\/p>\n<p>The whole application process was a bit different than what I\u2019m used to; asking my religion practice, single\/married; my food choices; how many guests I expect to have; etc.<\/p>\n<p>I do like the unit as it\u2019s very close to my work and it\u2019s new, but if I\u2019m seriously getting evicted over my colour of skin I am happy to tell these guys to fuck off.<\/p>\n<p>Just wondering if I\u2019m protected or not as a tenant. In Alberta. <\/p>\n<p>Thanks.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- SC_ON --> &#032; submitted by &#032; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/spatiul\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \/u\/spatiul <\/a> <br \/> <span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/PersonalFinanceCanada\/comments\/weh2c1\/landlord_posted_rental_ad_for_my_suite_for_next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[link]<\/a><\/span> &#032; <span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/PersonalFinanceCanada\/comments\/weh2c1\/landlord_posted_rental_ad_for_my_suite_for_next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[comments]<\/a><\/span><a href=\"\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I live in a basement suite below some other tenants who are related to the landlord.
