The Landlord must pay the Tenant $10,000 for illegally locking the Tenant out and disposing of the Tenant's belongings. The Landlord must also pay the LTB a $2,000 administrative fine. The tenancy is terminated as of April 1, 2024.
Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord illegally entered the rental unit, altered the locking system without providing replacement keys, and substantially interfered with the Tenant's reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit.
Landlord argued the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 did not apply because the Tenant was required to share kitchen and bathroom facilities with the Landlord.
Landlord locked the Tenant out and disposed of the Tenant's belongings.
Tenant's belongings were disposed of by the Landlord, including clothes, boots, winter jackets, a TV, a mini-fridge, a bed, blood pressure medications, dentures, glasses, and legal papers.
