According to Kahn, a landlord can’t arbitrarily kick a tenant out. There’s a pretty straightforward piece of legislature called the Residential Tenancies Act that practically spells that out in all caps. There are only two ways that an honourable, due-paying renter can get evicted. Firstly, if the property owner finds a buyer for said property, they can give any tenants 60 days to get up, get out and make room. Secondly, if the landlord or a family member of theirs wants to move in, they can also give you 60 days to vacate.

But that’s not a free pass to be a jerk as long as you’re making rent. If the lease stipulates that the property is to remain smoke, pet or subletter free, and you infringe on that, then that’s grounds to be served a notice to terminate a tenancy.

What if something in my home breaks?

Get this: if a fixture in your home breaks, and it costs more than $50, you’re able to write a letter to your landlord (which they’re legally obligated to respond to) asking for it to be fixed. If they don’t reply, then you can contact the Landlord and Tenant Board and file a complaint.
