What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that Landlord substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit or residential complex by the Tenant or by a member of their household; and because the Landlord failed to meet the Landlord's maintenance obligations under the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 or failed to comply with health, safety, housing or maintenance standards.

The ruling

The Tenant's applications were dismissed. The Landlord's responses to the pest issues and maintenance of the common areas were found to be reasonable. The Tenant's claim for substantial interference due to the roof repair work was also dismissed as the interference, although substantial, was not unreasonable in the circumstances.
