What happened

Tenants applied for orders determining that the Landlord harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened or interfered with them and withheld or deliberately interfered with the reasonable supply of a vital service, care service, or food that the Landlord is obligated to supply under the tenancy agreement (the 'T2 Application'). The Tenants also applied for an order determining that 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 'T6 Application').

The ruling

The Tenants' T2 Application was dismissed. The Landlord was ordered to pay a rent abatement of $69.50 to the Tenants and hire a qualified cleaning company to clean the carpeting in the rental unit.
