What happened

The Tenant requested a review of an LTB order, alleging serious errors regarding the Landlord's method of providing notice for entry. The Tenant's legal representative argued that notices for unit viewings must be in paper format and that the Landlord's use of text messages was illegal. The application also touched upon allegations of harassment and interference with reasonable enjoyment.

The ruling

The request for review is denied. The original order issued on May 2, 2025, is confirmed and remains unchanged. The LTB found that text message notices for entry are valid if they provide the necessary information and notice period, rejecting the Tenant's argument that such notices must be in paper format.
