What happened

Tenant appealed LTB orders requiring payment of rental arrears and terminating tenancy due to non-payment. Tenant argued LTB misinterpreted laws regarding rent increases for social housing. Landlord moved to quash the appeal.

The ruling

The Divisional Court quashed the tenant's appeal of the LTB orders for payment of arrears and termination of tenancy. The court found no error of law in the LTB's decision, ruling that the social housing exemption from guideline rent increases applied and that the LTB's factual findings were not reviewable on appeal.
