Good to know
- Keep it calm and factual. A tribunal will read this letter later if the problem goes on.
- In Ontario this letter is only a warning. To start a case you must serve the LTB form N5, N6 or N7 from tribunalsontario.ca/ltb. In BC, the next step is RTB-33. In Alberta, a 14-day notice for substantial breach.
- Keep a log with dates, photos and names of witnesses. Never change the locks or cut utilities: that is illegal in every province.
