Stronger protection from bad-faith evictions
Landlords now face much higher fines if they claim “landlord’s own use” or “renovations” but never actually move in or renovate.
More proof required before a landlord can renovict
Landlords must show real construction plans, proper permits, and legitimate reasons before asking a tenant to leave.
Guaranteed right to move back after renovations
If tenants must temporarily leave for major renovations, Bill 60 reinforces their right to return at the same rent.
More cases where tenants receive compensation
Tenants may receive 1–3 months’ rent depending on the eviction type (renovations, landlord use, conversion).
Longer “no re-renting” period after certain evictions
If a landlord evicts for personal use or renovations, they must wait longer before renting the unit again—reducing fake evictions.
Clearer rules for landlord’s own use evictions
Tenants get better clarity on what landlords must prove before ending a tenancy for personal use.
Faster LTB timelines for tenants, too
The reforms aim to shorten wait times, so tenant disputes (repairs, harassment, illegal rent increases) move more quickly.
Tougher penalties for landlord misconduct
Larger fines apply to illegal evictions, harassment, failing to maintain the unit, or ignoring repair orders.
More transparency in rent increase applications
If a landlord wants an Above Guideline Increase (AGI), they must provide clearer evidence, giving tenants more grounds to challenge.
Better protections during building conversions
If a landlord plans to convert the property (e.g., to condos), tenants have stronger rights and clearer compensation rules.Stronger protection from bad-faith evictions
