Can I evict tenants for renovating my property without permission

[Curtis Sharpe]

Hey everyone just looking for advice I'm in Montreal Quebec and am having issues with my tenants refusing the rent increase because they renovated my property without my authorization nor me even knowing and they feel they can refuse my rent increase because they feel they payed for the renovations that I should be thankful and they won't be accepted any rent increases and are refusing to speak with us. If anyone has any advice on the laws of a tenant renovating a property without permission, it is my understanding this is illegal what they did and I should be able to file for eviction.

In the States, the answer would be "you need a lawyer" and "what does your lease say about unauthorized repairs?" I think those bits likely carry to north of the border as well.
