Landlord And Tenant Board Observation Report

During my return trip to downtown Tucson I visited my favorite place and the one which I felt held the most power. The Cadence apartment gives anyone who enters it the feel of a five-star hotel. The apartments gave the ambience of upper class with its constant cleaning crew working to keep it in prestige condition and multiple amenities only the nicest and most powerful of places would possess. When entering, you are welcomed to a long all white hallway with multiple fireplaces and flat screen televisions. The all white building gives the impression of a sleek and clean upper class building. After continuing down the hall, you are greeted by a fully equipped gym and a large pool and hot tub. Overall, with grand sweeping hallways, five star amenities, and classy atmosphere, The Cadence possesses much of the attributions that lead a building to be architecturally powerful.

The Landlord Tenant board (“LTB”) is tasked with addressing conflicts arising out of the rental of residences. The conflicts between landlords and tenants can be determined by adjudication before the tribunal through an oral hearing or mediation that is overseen by a board mediator. When you make an application to the LTB, they will schedule a hearing date. On this date you can arrive and will be given the option to engage in mediation on site. Mediation can only occur if both parties agree to participate. If both sides agree you will engage in mediation first, and then a hearing only if mediation is unsuccessful. Parties may have legal counsel as a representative during the mediation. As counsel it may be beneficial to contact the other side prior to the hearing date to determine if they wish to partake in mediation. Counsel should however be prepared to engage in a full hearing before the board should the other side change their mind about mediation, or in the event mediation is unsuccessful. If an applicant has filed their application with the board prior to obtaining legal counsel or new issues have arisen since the time of application, it is important to note that a hearing can only address what was submitted in the application. Whereas mediation is able to tackle any issues regarding the tenancy, even those not originally contained in the application to the LTB. If the mediation is successful parties can themselves

Although Plaintiff claims Ms. Miner provided bad references to prospective landlords, Ms. Miner has done nothing of the sort.

The clean up to Mr. Rusty Carr’s property was not managed in accordance to the provided legislation for the Dangerous and Unsightly Premise (546) in the Alberta Municipal Government Act.

Proper housing is crucial to a human being’s wellbeing, both mentally and physically. It is fundamental in ensuring good mental health, physical health, and it sets the basis for social inclusion in society. Housing is necessary for human beings to be able to survive and be able to protect themselves from the elements. It is recognized as a basic human need alongside food and water; thus, it is surprising that an estimated minimum of 235,000 people in a developed country like Canada remain homeless and an estimated one in five people cannot afford housing (Heffernan, Tracy; Faraday, Fay; and Rosenthal, Peter, 2015). Statistics such as these beg the question of whether or not the right to housing or the right to affordable housing is recognized in Canada. The answer to this question is quite complicated as there is no clear right in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms that recognizes a specific right to housing or shelter, however, under section 7 and section 15 of the charter which state that “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice” and “Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability(Canadian

Individuals and families are being forced out of their homes, despite ongoing pleas and signed petitions from residents affected by this issue. The federal government recently informed the public that there is more than $11 billion housing funds across Canada, but the distribution for Toronto has yet to be considered and small cash is expected to stream in time for the 2018 repairs to be completed.
