What qualifies as illegal activity for an N6 eviction?
Illegal activity may include criminal behaviour such as drug activity, violence, threats, or other conduct that affects the safety of the property or other tenants. The activity must be serious enough to justify ending the tenancy under Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act.
Can a landlord evict a tenant immediately for illegal activity?
In most cases, landlords must still follow the legal process by serving an N6 notice and applying to the Landlord and Tenant Board. Immediate eviction without an order is generally not permitted.
What evidence is needed for an N6 eviction?
Evidence may include police reports, witness statements, incident reports, photos, or other documentation showing the illegal activity. Strong, organized evidence is often critical to a successful application.
How long does an N6 eviction take in Ontario?
Timelines vary depending on the case and Landlord and Tenant Board scheduling. The process typically involves serving the notice, filing an application, and attending a hearing.
What happens if the tenant denies the illegal activity?
If the tenant disputes the allegations, the case will be decided at a hearing where both sides present evidence. The Board will determine whether the eviction should be granted.
Do landlords need to attend the LTB hearing?
Yes, landlords are generally expected to attend the hearing and present their case. Proper preparation and representation can make a significant difference in the outcome.
