Tenants' Rights Resources


If​ you are having a dispute with your landlord over maintenance or how their actions

or failure to act has impacted the enjoyment of your unit you can bring an

​application to the Landlord and Tenant board.
 

Before bringing an application you should communicate the issue in writing to your

landlord and ask them to take some action, or stop some behaviour. This is called a

​demand letter.

If your landlord does not respond to your demand letter the letter can still be helpful

to officially mark the date on which your made your landlord aware of the issue. If

​you do pursue an application at the Landlord and Tenant Board the letter can be

​used as evidence and help you get a remedy.
