      Hows this for an answer?



      PRIVACY:
      Q5: When can a landlord enter my apartment?
      A5: Before entering your apartment the landlord or their employee must give you 24 hours written notice giving a reason as well as a time (the time must be between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.). The landlord must have a good reason to come in, such as to make necessary repairs.

      Under the Harris governments' new Tenant "Protection" Act, no notice is necessary in cases of emergencies, or in cases where a notice to terminate the lease (by either the tenant or landlord) has been given, or an agreement to terminate has been made.

          You could really play with their minds. Don't tell them about the video camera. Being old farts they aren't savy to computers and all that anyway.

          Everytime you have video evidence, approach them and tell them that you could sense their presence in your room. Tell them that you know all and see all. Give them a wierd wild eyed stare and point to your head when you say all that.

          They will get so freaked out they will leave you alone or kick you out.

              Just one thing

              Do you know if your roomate is around yet??

              If he let them in they could do what he did there ( look in an open door)-- from what I saw he didn't go through your stuff but merely took a look around.

              Also they might have had some cleaning or something to do before the new guy came in but they really should clear that with you

                          Um... I'd take a less agressive confrontation.

                          Like, ask them WHY they so snoopy and suspicious. Have they had drug users stay before? Arms dealers?

                          Get it out in the open - and they may turn out to be cool.

                              My guess is he's just a snoopy old man. Asher just wise up and get your own place.

                                What I would do is secure a new place like Oerdin said, and THEN bring up the tape with the old man, or whoever else that needs to see it.
