What happens when neighborly charm turns into a courtroom showdown over driveways, fences, and junk piles?
Gavin Tighe and Stephen Thiele dive into a thorny Ontario neighbor dispute that spiraled from idyllic cottage country peace to legal chaos.
They explore how landlocked lots, easements, bad behavior, and skyrocketing property values fuel some of the most bitter legal fights — and why even the nicest people can turn fierce when defending their turf.
With stories of plywood “Berlin Walls,” concrete saw revenge, and surveillance cameras pointed into windows, this conversation is a fascinating, sometimes funny, and always insightful look at property law, human nature, and the high cost of bad neighborly relations.
