What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that Landlords failed to meet their maintenance obligations under the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 or failed to comply with health, safety, housing or maintenance standards.

The ruling

The Tenant's application was dismissed as he failed to demonstrate that he informed the Landlord of the maintenance issues reported by the City of Ottawa, and therefore the Landlord was not given the opportunity to address these issues prior to receiving the report.
