from CLEO Connect:

Join CLEO on Tuesday, April 21st from 12pm to 1:30pm EST us for a webinar on understanding no-fault evictions. Register today!

Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act allows a landlord to end a tenancy for reasons unrelated to a tenant’s actions. These types of evictions are called no-fault evictions. For example, a landlord can evict a tenant:

  • to complete a major renovation,
  • to demolish the building, or
  • because they or certain family members would like to live in the rental unit.

Landlords must bring a no-fault eviction in good faith, but some landlords use them to get new tenants who pay more rent. This is known as a bad faith eviction.

This webinar will cover:

  • municipal renoviction and demoviction bylaws
  • what demovictions and renovictions are, and Form N13
  • landlords’ own-use evictions and Form N12
  • what to do if a landlord uses a no-fault eviction in bad faith
  • how community workers can advocate for stronger tenant rights

ASL interpretation will be available. This webinar will be recorded and available online later. Register today!

Speakers will include:

  • Laura Anonen, Community Development Worker, Don Valley Community Legal Services
  • Michelle Choe, Staff Lawyer, Don Valley Community Legal Services
