My guess is Roman Catholic. My step mother converted to Catholicism when I was about 7 or 8 and I remember we weren't allowed to take part in Halloween that year. She created some sort of "Jesus Day" I think is what she called it so we still got candy but couldn't dress up or go outside.
No way. We Roman Catholics celebrate all these pagan holidays with glee.

I'm with murd0c, I can't fucking stand people like that. We're in Canada, we like Christmas, it is very socially accepted in this country. The message is togetherness, family, loved ones, and spending time with them. It's one thing to not participate due to religion or beliefs, but it's another thing entirely to frown upon others for celebrating the holiday. You don't like it? Stay in your fucking house until January 2nd. Fuckers.

Hmm, maybe it was just the church we were part of then. They were VERY against any of the congregation participating in Halloween. This was in a small town though, so that's probably why.

Really? This reminded me of a honor movie where the town's people basically kill anyone that tries to do something that's not their custom.......
I am a born again Christian. Why is this a problem for people????! I have a house that’s MINE and I PAID FOR IT. I also have a basement apartment for rent. It’s a great space [and] I’m charging very little for it, $480 monthly, for the right tenant. I know it’s ILLEGAL to require a Christian in the apartment, against the human rights. That’s why I NEVER put this in my ad. Why then does it keep getting taken down?
HERE IS THE AD I POSTED, AND THE AD THAT KEEPS GETTING REMOVED:
Available Immediately – Broadway and Commercial – Showing Saturday and Sunday – Email for directions and additional information.
What kind of apartment is it?
◾One bedroom basement apartment with separate entrance
◾Tastefully decorated with modern décor
◾Approximately 650 square feet
◾There is even a window! Security bars installed for your safety and to prevent unauthorized activity
◾Closed circuit camera installed for security and safety. One in your suite, one at the entrance, and one in the exercise yard
Rent:
◾$480.00 per month
◾First month’s rent + ˝ month security deposit due at move in
◾Small pet allowed with approval and payment of additional ˝ month pet damage deposit
◾One year lease permitted, option to renew lease at end of the term with no increase in rent
◾LANDLORD’S SPECIAL! Move in before January 1st and don’t pay for the remainder of December! That’s significant savings.
Included in the rent:
◾Electricity
◾Heat – Maintained at 21 degrees with lock box to prevent unauthorized tampering. Additional heating available for $20.00 per extra degree of heating per month. You may not use your oven to heat the apartment. If you do, you will be fined $50.00 per occurrence.
◾Air conditioning – Maintained at 25 degrees during the summer with lock box to prevent extra cooling from being dispensed. Additional cooling for sale for $20.00 per degree of cooling requested per month.
◾25″ Zenith color television set with basic cable service – INCLUDED IN RENT!
◾Wireless internet (with content filter applied to block forbidden/immoral websites) – INCLUDED IN RENT!
◾Provision of coin laundry services – You will have your own personal coin laundry washer and dryer machines. Washers and dryers are paid using a token system. Tokens can be purchased through the landlord. Washer tokens cost $4.15 each and dryer tokens cost $3.60 each. You are not allowed to use foreign currency or slugs in the washer and dryer. Violators will be fined $100.00 per infraction.
About us: (Landlords)
We are conservative, bible believing, God-fearing, born again, evangelical Christians. We interpret the bible literally in every way possible. We live a strict moral code and observe God’s laws in our everyday life. My wife stays at home and teaches our home-schooled children. I work as a pastor at a local congregation and am active in the faith community.
About you: (Tenant)
◾You are employed
◾You do not participate in lascivious deviant sexual behavior
◾You do not choose alternative lifestyles as your lifestyle
◾You do not have any criminal history
◾You must have excellent character references
◾You do not smoke, drink or take drugs. Mandatory drug screening required.
Additional Rules/Conditions:
CLEANLINESS: You are responsible for the cleanliness and orderliness of your apartment. Beds are to be made before leaving your suite, countertops must be wiped down, and you must remove all trash. Upon inspection, if the tenant’s basement suite is not clean, the cost of cleaning services plus a fine of $100.00 will be levied.
LIGHTS: The lights in your basement suite and in the day room are not to be tampered with. If a light needs repair, report the condition to the Landlord.
WAKE-UP: Wake up will be at 5:30am each morning. All ceiling lights in the suite will be turned on automatically.
LIGHTS OUT: Ceiling lights in the suite will be turned off at 11:30pm.
CONTRABAND: The following items are considered contraband – alcohol, illegal drugs, tobacco, weapons, lock picking equipment. If any contraband is discovered to be in your possession, you will be subject to a minimum $1,000.00 fine. In addition, your items will be confiscated permanently. Second offense – you will be evicted without notice. A bailiff will escort you and your belongings off the premises. Your security deposit will not be returned.
SMOKING: The basement suite is non-smoking. Anyone in possession of tobacco products of any kind or any lighter or matches, will have their contraband items confiscated and will be fined $100.00.

VISITATION: Visitation periods will be on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m. All visitors and their vehicles are subject to search while on landlord property. Refusal to allow a search can result in their being barred from all future visitation privileges. All visitors must sign the Visitor’s Log. Unauthorized visitors will be escorted from the property, and the tenant will be fined $250.00.
I.D. BRACELETS: Each tenant will be issued an I.D. bracelet with his/her photograph. It must be worn at all times. If you lose your I.D. bracelet or it is broken, you will be required to purchase a new one at the nominal cost of $5.00.

The tenant is not allowed to bring any personal property to the exercise yard. Once the tenant leaves the exercise yard on a particular day, he or she may not return.

holy hell that's got to be a fake. Who in their right mind thinks any of that is acceptable. Although I have seen a few advertisements that have had restrictions on visitors, so maybe they're just over the top Christians.

I got a question, and a quick browse through I didn't see anyone else ask.
Is this a legal basement suite?
Doesn't necessarily matter, but depending on the guys approach to the scenario, it could level the playing field a bit in your favor to go tell buddy to pound sand. Last thing he needs is the city up his ass about his illegal suite, he'll never rent it ever again after you leave the place.

Yes, they are Johovas Witnesses. Its quite ironic that you said that ^^ We got served a 2 month eviction notice this evening. I have asked 3 times (just to make sure) that our suit was legal. Turns out its not! City bylaw was here for a parking infraction because my driveway does not have a permit and towed my vehicle for being parked in a wrongful spot. (landlord built the driveway on a easement, and removed the citys boulevard) Long story short after arguing about wrongfull towing, he served my landlords with a notice to tear down the suit. Turns out a load bearing wall was removed without a permit, improper duct routing, furnace room is not up to fire code, windows too small to jump out of incase of fire, non of the wiring had a permit. etc, the list goes on. So... We've got 2 months to vacate.

Then it is safe to say have fun decorating the shit out of your house for Christmas. Maybe throw a mistletoe just above buddies front door for good measure.
Maybe once christmas is up you can celebrate halloween your last month there just to piss off this dickhead.

Sounds like a blessing in disguise, really. One of the easiest ways to tell if a suite is legal or not is to check the window sizes, the bedroom one in particular.
It really is quite nice, honestly one of the nicest places i've rented in the past 6 years. Everything is new and updated (1970's house) Laminate dark hardwood floor, nicely updated kitchen, if anything breaks the landlords are there to fix it the next day. Its a piss off for sure, we've been here for 7 months and we're already packing.

building code is there for a reason, though. it may look nice superficially, but none of that matters if a slight tremor or earthquake makes the place collapse on you bc of the remove load bearing wall, or a fire kills you as you can't get out.
i imagine you've just saved yourself 2 months of rent, though, right? surely your lease agreement is void as its not a legal suite and your safety is questionable there. i know i wouldn't pay and would happily say so, calmly, and with reason, to the landlord.
there are plenty of places for rent in vancouver - you'll find somewhere legal in no time.
it's got nothing to do with being christian, these ppl are just whack jobs.
i'm not christian (i'm a devil child, no belief), but i'm sure Christianity, when it was made up (sorry religious ppl), was not envisioned to go this way!!!

Regardless, go balls out with decorating then!
just for shits and giggles, throw in a few halloween decorations here and there...
and while you're at it, ask them a few of these questions if you get the chance to!

Sorry to hear that moving sucks.
You'll find something great though and you won't have to be hesitant about doing any decorating for Halloween, Christmas, Easter, national steak and bj day or any holiday for that matter. just think of this as a positive

Onto the bright things:
-Decorate the fuck out of everything. If they want to stop you, tell them to fuck themselves because you're already out in 60 days.
-Atleast they get karma for being dicks, they're rental will be torn out, and if they want to rebuild, they are in for headaches as the city now knows that they tried to have an illegal suite. Inspectors will probably give them a hard time for trying to cheat out the system.
Good and bad to take from this. I'd stick to the good.

Fucking Joho's... always door knocking and driving people crazy with their pressure tactics and won't let people express there own belief's.. I have always respected all religions but that one right there is one I don't and will never have respect for.

Its a 2month notice to vacate. We need to pay next months rent, but the month after is free, or we can leave 1 month early and they pay us 1 month rent out of their own pocket.
Thanks for the input guys. I suppose its good to get out of this place, but we are already having a tough time making ends meet, and we've got a small dog which will make finding a new place impossible. We're just pissed that we have to move on no reason of our own. Yay for good christmas news!
edit: I jokingly told the girlfriend that we can move out 1 month early, take the cash and move into our 27ft 5th wheel in the walmart parking lot BUHAHAHAHA Just about got my ass kicked for thinking that.

Even easier way to tell: a legal suite will have its own address.
But yes, definitely a blessing in disguise. And I just love karma!
