Theoretically it is possible to execute a lien as a forced sale of a primary residence. However, some states have laws that specifically forbid such action and in most cases the homestead exemption will protect the property when it pertains to unsecured debts . Even if that is not the case homes that are jointly owned (especially by a married couple) are rarely subjected to a forced sale. In addition, senior citizens, disabled persons, and low-income persons generally have added protection against losing their home with the exception of issues concerning foreclosure. State and/or federal tax issues are a totally different situation.

How do you lien a house in Canada?
I can only assume you are asking how can someone put a lien on a home in Canada? The owner of the home would have to owe you or the government a lot of money before you could put a lien on their home and even if it was a private affair I'm not 100% sure a private party can put a lien on someone's home. It's usually banks and or money owed to governments who put liens on a persons home.

What does is mean to have a lien on ones property and tenets?
A lien is a security interest in the property. A lien might arise from a loan. If you buy a car with the bank's money the bank will put a lien on the car. If you don't pay the bank back, it can foreclose on its lien and take the car from you. If you have a roofer add a new roof to your house, and you don't pay him, the laws allow the roofer to put a lien on your house. The roofer now has a stake in the house. If you don't pay off the lien your house can be forcibly put up for sale in order to satisfy the lien. I believe "property and tenets" translates into modern speak as "property and belongings".
Can the lien against my property be released when the the original owner apparently with a tax debt died.?
Assuming you are talking about an IRS lien, then yes. If you were not liable for the taxes, then the lien should not be on your property. The first thing to determine is whether or not the lien actually attached to your property. If the previous owner of the house owned the house at the time the lien was filed, then the lien probably legally attached to the house. If this is the case, this is something you should take up with the title company that did the title work when you purchased the house. More common is that the IRS filed a lien and the address they had on record was still his old house (your house). Just because the lien had that address on it doesn't mean you have a lien on your house. If the property wasn't his, then it did not legally attach. If a title company still has issues with this (if you are trying to sell your house), you may need to get a Certificate of Non-Attachment from the IRS to show them that it's not attached.

Can a construction lien holder force you to sell your home?
In a 'worst case scenario' probably they can. They have a legal lien against your property to satisfy an unpaid debt that is owed them. If they take you to court and are awarded a judgment against you, and your home is your only monetary asset, the court COULD order you to sell it to in order to pay off the lien.
How do you file a lien on a house that is in a trust in Massachusetts?
Yes, a lien can be filed on a piece of real property, regardless of the owner. However, the reason for the lien has to be directly related to the actual owner or the property itself. i.e., if a trust owns a house and I live in the house, and you have a judgement against me, there is no attaching a lien on the house for my debt.
