About the Landlord and Tenant Board
The purpose of the Landlord and Tenant Board is to inform landlords and tenants about their rights and responsibilities under the Residential Tenancies Act and provide balanced and timely dispute resolution in accordance with the law. The Ontario Rental Housing Tribunal is now known as the Landlord and Tenant Board.
The Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) came into effect on January 31, 2007. The RTA sets the rules for most residential rental housing in Ontario. The previous legislation, known as the Tenant Protection Act, (TPA) is no longer in effect.
