I support the intent of Bill 60 and would like to highlight the importance of strengthening protections for landlords, particularly when dealing with tenants who engage in damaging, abusive, or non-compliant behavior. While fair and balanced legislation must safeguard both parties, it is equally critical that landlords have clear, efficient mechanisms to address situations involving persistent non-payment, property damage, or deliberate misuse of tenancy rights.

Enhancing the tools and processes available to landlords—such as faster resolution timelines, better enforcement of orders, and safeguards against fraudulent or bad tenant actions—helps ensure a stable, responsible rental market. When landlords feel protected from high-risk or non-cooperative tenants, they are more willing to maintain and invest in rental housing, ultimately benefiting communities and supporting overall housing availability. Currently lot of landlords are not willing to give their house on rent as they have burned their hands with bad tenants and lost lot of money and mental strength. The stress faced by lot of landlords because of bad tenants not only impact them but their families and kids as well. Tenants are taking undue advantage of system and can remain in unit without paying rent for months, and even afterwards there is no way to get the pending due's back from tenants. We know a tenant family, which deliberately didn't pay rent for months and enjoy Europe trip, while Landlord has to work 2 jobs and over the weekend, to pay both mortgages, and tenant was showing inhumane attitude towards the landlord even in this situation. Tenant are taking over advantage of backlog at LTB and causing acute stress to landlords. LTB is back filled with such cases over years. Please approve Bill 60 , else Landlord are forced to keep their properties empty instead of giving it for rent to even legitimate tenants.
