Keep a roof over Teresa's head in Montréal

After a car accident that kept me from work for 3 weeks, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,150. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working weekend shifts, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $1,150 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $600 • Utilities in arrears: $230 • Late fees and court costs: $320 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
