Advocacy groups say tensions between landlords and renters are at an all-time high in the wake of a Hamilton landlord killing two tenants.
Police told CBC Hamilton detectives are investigating if a conflict over a mould complaint occurred right before the landlord killed 27-year-old Carissa MacDonald and her 28-year-old fiancé Aaron Stone on May 27.
The landlord, 57, died a few hours later in a shootout with police.
Police have not released the name of the landlord, who neighbours say also lived in the home. Terry Gerald Brekka owned the house, according to property records.
