I think 30 days is being extremely generous after she has so rudely taken away space from you and your three boys and overstayed her welcome. I would give her two weeks to get out.
This should teach you a very important lesson in life. If you already have enough responsibilities in life, you don't take on more. Never let someone else live with you. No matter who it is, they will always take advantage, overstay their welcome, or worse.

You should go to the sheriffs office and see what you can do legally. In the u.s. It doesnt matter if the person contributes or not legally if they get their mail there you have to go through the eviction process and then give them 60 days. Hopefully in canada its different.

Give her 30 days to find a new place and ask her to leave. She is your sister, but you are NOT your sister's keeper.
