Calling Lawyers / Law students for help
So my family owns this gas station, and we let a couple move in to "test" the business out. they end up moving in COMPLETELY with all their stuff, and now we find out that they don't have enough to make any deals with us, and refusing to move out.
as ridiculous as this may sound, apparently it's a civil manner so the cops won't do anything, and it looks like only way to kick them out of our property which they haven't paid a single penny for (while PROFITING from the gas station) is to sue them. any suggestions? btw this is in Canada.

In my country America we have the right to do what we want with trespasars. Start by getting pointing a gun at them while yelling GET THE [censored] OUT! If you don't have the potatoe sack to do that get a baseball bat and swing away. Or for you Canadians get a hockey stick. Why do people live in gas stations anyway?

Also, it's not a civil manner in the US (I think you meant civil matter) because they're tresspassing, which is a crime. This is reason number 3320 to annex canada, stupid things like this.

[/ QUOTE ] You are getting some bad advice about American law in this thread. Tenants living on a property do not become trespassers merely because they have not paid rent, or their lease has expired, or their landlord wants them to leave. They would typically be termed "tenants at sufferance". They cannot be charged with criminal trespass, and the landlord cannot forcibly remove them from the property. They can be forcibly evicted by law enforcement. But in order to do this, the landlord first has to bring an eviction action against them in court. So if you were in the US, you would still need to sue.

So, yeah I think I'd contact an attorney. I'd fork out the fee for an hr of his time and get some sound legal advice before they end up costing you more $$. Did you have anything in writing?
