Dispute

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant because the Tenant, another occupant of the rental unit or someone the Tenant permitted in the residential complex has substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment or lawful right, privilege or interest of the Landlord or another tenant; because the Tenant or another occupant of the rental unit has committed an illegal act or has carried out, or permitted someone to carry out an illegal trade, business or occupation in the rental unit or the residential complex involving the production of an illegal drug, the trafficking in an illegal drug or the possession of an illegal drug for the purposes of trafficking; and because the Tenant, another occupant of the rental unit or a person the Tenant permitted in the residential complex has seriously impaired the safety of any person.

Landlord's Arguments

Tenant's Arguments

Arguments

The Tenant submits that the Board failed to rule on the sufficiency of the notices of termination, bringing into question its jurisdiction to determine the issues in the application. The Tenant further submits that the Member erred in her interpretation and application of the legal tests for determining whether an illegal act has been committed or the safety of any person has been impaired. The Tenant also contends that the Member relied on hearsay evidence that did not have the indicia of reliability and that, by noting that the Tenant did not contradict the hearsay evidence, the Member reversed the onus on proof. Finally, the Tenant submits that the Member erred in not issuing a conditional order maintaining the tenancy, provided the Tenant did not permit her son access to the unit or complex.
