Need todecide how to handle rental income

I have a rental property in Ontario and am renting a room and use of shared space to a friend.

 

The rent seems at the low end for similar rentals in my area. My friend is claiming his rental payments on his taxes.  His share of the costs exceeds his rental payments, and probably will do for quite a few years.

 

It's not clear whether this is a shared expense arrangement or whether I should declare the rent and expenses.
