A Class Action Lawsuit has been brought by an Ontario Landlord against the Ontario Government
Read a copy of the Amended Statement of Claim HERE
The claim alleges the Ontario government, through its mis-regulation of the Landlord-tenant relationship, has effectively deprived the Plaintiff, Elsie Kalu, and potentially thousands of other Ontario Landlords, from all reasonable uses of their rented properties. Ms. Kalu asserts that this amounts to the de facto expropriation (“constructive taking”) of her lands by the Government – something a recent Supreme Court ruling describes as giving rise to a right to compensation.1
The proposed class must first be certified by the Court before the claim is permitted to proceed. Following certification, all individuals who are members of the class will be automatically included in the claim.
At this time, if you believe you are a member of the proposed class, you are not required to take any additional actions.
