What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to substantial interference with the reasonable enjoyment of the other tenants and because the Tenant or another occupant committed an illegal act involving the production, trafficking or possession of an illegal drug.

The ruling

The Landlord's application was dismissed because the notices of termination were invalid for failing to comply with the mandatory requirements of the Residential Tenancies Act.
