Two sisters were shocked when a Toronto landlord raised their rent by $7,000 per month.

“At first we thought he can’t be serious when we received this notice and we were just very shocked,” Khadeja Farooq said.

The landlord had told them he wanted to raise the rent to $3,500 and when they complained he decided to raise it to $9,500.
