Tenant Rights & Resources

We know that many tenants are facing rent increases, maintenance issues and ‘renovictions’. Protecting affordable rentals and helping you stay in your homes is one of my top priorities. 

The province's Residential Tenancies Act sets out the rights and responsibilities of landlords and tenants in Ontario.

The City of Toronto doesn't have jurisdiction over evictions and rent increases. However, the city plays an important role in assisting tenants and investigating property standards issues.

My office can also assist Ward 5 tenants access available resources and supports. In addition there's various community legal and advocacy organizations providing free assistance to tenants.
