Premier Doug Ford says changes could be coming to the province's rental rules, arguing the “pendulum has swung” against small, independent landlords, who are grappling with issues like non-paying tenants.
Ford on Wednesday said he's been discussing with Attorney General Doug Downey possible reforms to the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) — a quasi-judicial body that regulates rental disputes — to address these concerns.
“I spent an hour with my attorney general yesterday, just running through the agenda, and I think the pendulum has swung the other way, especially for small landlords,” he told reporters.
