Since 2015 Dave Clark had been renting a very well-appointed residence in Oak Bay for which he paid the sum of $1200 a month plus utilities. The tenancy was for a term of ten years, and there was a clause in the written tenancy agreement that allowed Clark to have at least one other tenant move in and share the expenses with him. In May of 2022 while Clark and his friend Joe Parker were having some beers in a pub after a few games of tennis, the two men made an oral agreement in which Parker would move into the house, have the exclusive use of a bedroom and share all the other rooms and facilities starting the first week of July for a set sum of $600 a month. The men also agreed at that time that this would last at least until the tenancy with the landlord came up for renewal. As a result, Parker terminated his own tenancy agreement a couple of weeks later. The two men did not have any further communication with each other since their time in the pub until about mid June when Parker phoned Clark to ask some questions about moving in some of his furniture beforehand. At that time, Clark told him the arrangement would not be "convenient." In fact, Clark's girffiend had moved in with him. Parker insists on the right to move in; Clark insists he wasn't "that serious" and his friend should have realized that.
