This doesn’t mean you have to file a bankruptcy, but you will be responsible for the shortfall on the mortgage (assuming there is one).

So you may have to investigate a bankruptcy, a consumer proposal or some other option to deal with this shortfall. Although which option is really going to depend on the rest of your financial picture. You may consider meeting with a local trustee to discuss your position and develop a plan to deal with the outstanding amounts.
